Breezers, just spoke to Dean Gardiner this morning about BtoB. The wind is looking good so it is unlikely there will be the same ugly conditions as last year. This year is looking like it will be straight downwind for the last half of the race, but side wind for the start - lucky if you have a rudder!

PFDs - they are compulsory. I know we all hate the idea of wearing them - especially in the harbour - but there is no choice. I am going to purchase one this week that allows for a drink bladder. I would of taken a camel back anyway so it is not really the end of the world. If you are thinking of doing the Doctor or the Fenn Cup races you have to wear them so you may as well get a decent one.
See ya Sunday.
