Nice to meet a person after my own heart.

Atefootrz, where do you sail, and what do you sail in?

Know how you feel!!

I started in Mirrors as a kid.
Graduated to cruisers, and now I'm crewing on a Dragon and have been for the last 10 yrs.

Went to Oireland in Aug '03 for the Europeans Champs - crap result but good party!!

I have deep respect for anyone who sails in 18s!!!.

'A Voyage for Madmen' is an interesting read.

Not wanting to go ocean racing? Pussy. One of the guys in this book had never sailed on the day he left to circumnavigate solo...in what seems to have been akin to a trailer sailor.

Great stuff Benn : as a hermit & anti social type i can relate farr
more to solo ocean racing than the heavily crewed slog stuff :D
David Adams once told me i was crazy -this from a Solo Round the World Race Winner ! i wuz stoked & put it straight onto my CV :D
