We have visual on PUMA -- surrounded by dozens of spectator boats already as they prepare to come in. Second place there for the taking for Ken Read's boys.
It's a grey, windy day in Auckland but that's not stopping loads of spectator boats heading out to meet the fleet
The two traditional Maori Waka boats are in place at the entrance to Viaduct Harbour to welcome in fleet into Auckland
Latest we hear from the water is that it could be an hour before PUMA cross the line ... winds have lightened considerably

Remember, you can follow the boats using the live tracker function
Update for all you CAMPER fans - your boys are doing 18 knots with less than 20 nm to go.
@Lars Yeah, just speaking to Knut Frostad out on the water and he confirms wind is up again. Brad Jackson is at the helm as well. Wonder if the other Kiwis on board will get a turn as well.
Brad Jackson, one of PUMA's several Kiwis and a local legend
, is on the wheel bringing her down the home strait
@Cristi Mitrofan Good to have you up following this with us.
Looks like CAMPER are trying to initiate a gybing match to force Telefonica into a mistake. Incredible after such a long ocean leg. Crews will be running on adrenaline now.
Huge crowds out now to welcome the boats at the Auckland Viaduct. It's American day and there's a gospel choir singing. Sounds amazing.
PUMA approaching North Head at a very good speed. Couple of gybes to go, maybe.
Indeed Ken and the whole Crew on MarMostro really deserve that 2nd and if all works out they finally have something to drink on :D and how sweet would taste the revenge if camper can snatch the 3rd from Tele. Anyone remember the last second switch at the save haven port?
