Re: Interesting...
On another note (having done a very small amount of research), it seems there is certainly some indication in showing it can quite probably be true: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/4692363.stm http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/Forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3786&PN=3&title=celebrity-sailor...

If anyone may be looking for crew for this event (on a very much provisional basis), I'd be very keen to be crew for someone....!

Re: Happy Christmas every one of us!

Re: Rudder shape ?
