Just the job!!!
Having heard about the tacking battles at Chippenham I thought that the following on ebay might be just the job. Get her launched, run from stern to bow and claim the prize. You'll still spend 6 hours there but the launching and sailing times will have been swapped over!!! Oh yes - you'll need a police escort on the motorways!!!!

If you feel like driving one of these things around the pond, we have a couple of enprepreneurs in San Diego USA who rent them out by the hour. They have aquired two old americas cup class boats which they "race" against each other.
Its not quite like come in number nine your time's up however.
They charge about fourty Pounds an hour and when your time is up they come alongside in a zodiac , take you off and place the next victim on board.
Not very satisfying but you can honestly say " I have sailed an America's Cup Racer.".
