Finally a world champs that I'd have got in the top 10 after all these years There are 9 male entrants ! Lots of ladies entered Odd Would have thought that a bit of Oman sun at this time of the year would have been welcome to the European/British sailors ? |

| I just saw a pic of one of the girls sailing and they had a composite mast from CST. I obviously am a bit behind the curve but its good to see that they have ditched the two part Al monstrosity, with the big kink at the join. Progress! |
