Russ, what boat are you getting now?

Planning on going in the Lightning. One problem - is there hot water available to unfreeze the water in the bottom of the mast pot?

Back in a 300 Richard, Its looking like its going to be bloody cold! 

Why don't you take the 700, or get another crew?  I'm sure you could get one of those BLYM boys?

Yup, will be there in the Moth. Although it was so cold last year the height controls were freezing up - won't sail if it's like that again...

Thats right Steve, hopefully baptising it at the BM. I have always liked the blue boats.  The colour will work fantastically with potential calender shots as it will bring out the colour in my eyes!

I won't, in the RS600 I'll have to start a few seconds after the 29ers, and I don't like my chances of sailing through the dirty air of all the squaddies
