Melanie and John Sanderson had a run of bad luck last spring. Evicted from their apartment with their two children, the couple had bad credit and couldn't find a landlord willing to rent to them. They ended up at a homeless shelter, Melanie Sanderson said, and a friend who promised to store their furniture sold it at a yard sale. When the family moved in July into a rented house in Curtis Bay, they had little more than the clothing they wore. Not for long. The nonprofit HOPE Inc. donated beds, tables and a couch, and last month, founder Leo Zerhusen dropped off a crib.

After more than two weeks without a proper shower, Mike Sanderson felt the welcoming spray he has come to expect over the five months of the around-the-world Volvo Ocean Race: mist from a massive bottle of champagne.

The broken boats are fixed. The battered crews are healed. Now, the seven challengers in the Volvo Ocean Race are ready to head to the open sea for more mayhem. The second leg of the global race will begin today in Cape Town, South Africa.
