I'm getting ready for the Fastnet. There is a great turn out, 72 boats here to race, in the photo you can see how they've packed all the little racce boats in a small fish port.
Today we have the Prolog, inshore small race. Really for the guys with big sponsors to for a media day, but also a good chance to do some final checks and tests before tomorrows big start.
I had a fun day yesterday, the mini Transat Mare.de, has just chartered a Class 40 for the Route de Rum. He needed to take some media photos of both boats so I went out on the mini. Its a great boat, one of the newest and top in the fleet. It was perfect mini conditions for downwind and was great fun flying past the 40 with the Spi up.
For the Fastnet start tomorrow there is a race tracker again, the address is http://www.winchesclub.com/minis650/fastnet650/FR-25-1-1--
