Ricky has been in touch to let us know that Durban will be slipping at 6am tomorrow morning (17th) and heading for the canal. Panama is 6 hours behind the UK so that makes it a reasonable 12pm for us. They will be joined by WA and Hull & Humber.
It will probably be a couple of hours before you see them on any of the webcams though. I sat watching for New York, Uniquely Singapore & Glasgow: Scotland with Style this afternoon and they didn't pass under Centennial Bridge until after 4pm UK time .... well at least I think the tiny white & black blob was Glasgow ;) I managed to just about catch them on the high res camera coming out of Miraflores Locks when I got in this evening which was at 6pm. So it's a long process just to get that far. According to the Clipper site, it will take them about 12 hours to pass through the canal, so if you're up early you might catch them coming out through Gatun Locks tomorrow morning.
