Quite surprised to see there are now three full time Yngling teams... ------------- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Be-Your-Own-Tactics-Coach/dp/0470973218/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312565831&sr=8-1 - |

| 4 if Gemma is full time as well. I think that was the plan, but not sure if it is now the case. |

I must admit since Rachael is sailing with Vicky and Emma I assumed Gemma had stopped... ------------- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Be-Your-Own-Tactics-Coach/dp/0470973218/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312565831&sr=8-1 - |

But none of them have had a steady crew - does that make any difference though?
------------- A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. |

Still seems to be confusion who is sailing with whom! DSM said it was Sarah Ayton, Katherine Hopson, Pippa Wilson, TDS said Sarah Ayton, Sarah Webb, Pippa Wilson. I guess we will have to see the report in Y&Y on the Sail for Gold regatta!!! ------------- http://www.amazon.co.uk/Be-Your-Own-Tactics-Coach/dp/0470973218/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312565831&sr=8-1 - |

Given it's going to be a light wind regatta, perhaps Shirley should sail with her kids !!!!

Did anyone hear the commentry on the medal race yesterday. I was amazed that Sparky and a n other managed to make the Yngling race sound exciting. It would appear that there are three very good yngling campaigns going on at the moment. World No. 2 Sarah Ayton, Sarah Webb and Pippa Wilson sailed exceptionaly well and would have won by 5 points if they had not had to carry an DSQ (they had 2 DSQ's for Lifejacket infringement). ------------- jonesy |

Think this is very healthy for the class, the more boats, the more they
improve against each other... Lets see how many more girls get involved... |

I agree, the more the merrier and it will also push the girls to get better and better. Hopefully they will all get the same bite of the cherry and the best will go to Beijing. I know who I think is best but I am sure there are different opinions. ------------- jonesy |

The new Three Blondes in a Boat Sarah, Sarah and Pippa may have a fight on their hands but given the Sarah's results this year I am sure they are up to it. Lets just hope selections are not who you are but how good you are. At the end of the day it's keeping Team GB at the top of the medal's that counts. |

Well done to Sarah, Sarah and Pippa, with this report from ISAF are they on their way to Beijing???? 'The stars of the show in Medemblik were the British crew Sarah http://www.sailing.org/bio.asp?ID=GBRSA16 - AYTON , Sarah WEBB and Pippa WILSON (GBR). Once again http://www.sailing.org/bio.asp?ID=GBRSA16 - AYTON and WEBB outshone their former helm Shirley http://www.sailing.org/bio.asp?ID=GBRSR6 - ROBERTSON (GBR) to pick up their second gold medal from Medemblik in three years. http://www.sailing.org/bio.asp?ID=GBRSA16 - AYTON and co lie at #4 in the Rankings.' |
