CHARLESTON, South Carolina (AP) — British sailor Chris Stanmore-Major has finished third in the fourth leg of the around-the-world Velux 5 Oceans yacht race.
Stanmore-Major crossed the finish line off Charleston Harbor about 9:45 p.m. Thursday after sailing 5,700 miles from Punta del Este in Uruguay. He was at sea for 25 days and almost 10 hours on the fourth leg of the solo yachting race.
Stanmore-Major finished third behind second place Derek Hatfield of Canada. The leader, Charleston resident Brad Van Liew, won the leg and arrived late Tuesday.
The fifth and final leg of the race leaves next month for France where the Velux 5 Oceans began last year.
