	that's pretty much the level of response i got too tim http://www.yachtsandyachting.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2 723 i'd have thought anyone who knows the Southport 24 Hour Race format would have been well enthusiastic, although it's a bit less sociable on the water in a one man boat i guess the 7:00 am Saturday captains briefing, 8:00 am start could have something to do with it for travellers, even with a Friday night social and overnight camping by the lake i'm starting to think some really do think it's one man in a boat for 12 hours ...

	tactical rig changes at Southport could be a bit like F1 tyre changes at Silverstone ... swap wets for slicks, then the heavens open (guess you might if you had a mixed Junior/Adult team)

	hey, tim, which club are you? if you're entering a team, post your sail number and i'll look out for you ... by the level of non-interest it should be easy enough to pick you out!
