This forum needs some spicing up and debate, so here goes: who would you have on your UK born dream team on a boat? Thinking key positions:

Nav: Jules Salter

Tactics: Ado Stead

Driver: Tim Powell/Ben Ainslie

Trimmers: Gerry Mitchell, Andy Hemmings,

Bow: Matt Cornwell

Any thoughts?....

Yes she's done well but would Ellen get on well in a team? A think she's an amazing Solo sailor but it would be very interesting if you put her into a team with the likes of Ben Ainslie, Jules Salter, Ado Steed et al.
