	Seeing as by then we will actually have moved (it will only have taken a year) and Rutland will be just up the road so to speak, it seemed silly, if not downright rude, not to enter. This will be one of my first outings (sailing wise ) with the tacking sticks, so I anticipate my boat handling to be even more entertaining than usual!

	I will be giving it a miss this year in favor of sailing in shorts and t-shirt in New Zealand. Hope you boys have fun and don’t get fooled into thinking it is not that windy and that you don’t need the dry suit because it is and you do!!!

	I may wear it under my drysuit if it gets really cold. I'll be wearing a Kemp Sails jacket on shore (it's the only jacket i own) so if anyone here sees me, make sure you do come up and say hello. Don't anyone go being shy. Edited by Doug.H
