There's a 50/50 chance of me seeing Nessie. I'm not a big lover of Long Distance Races due to the fact I have failed to get a finish in everyone that I have competed in and caused £'s worth of damage. RTI twice (I went through mainsail once, grounded and damaged crossbar on the other occassion), Pwllheli once (Colin went through mainsail). I also tend to get frustrated after the first hour and everyone is spread miles apart. I'm sorry about the moaning as I confident the social side would make up for the 12hr drive. I'll have to see how things pan-out over the next month or two.
Keep on pestering me and you never know, the wife hasn't stopped for the past couple of weeks and I'm in the middle of painting the spare room as we speak: Outside is near perfect sailing/beer garden conditions <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
