The first thing we need is a BIMBO website...

There was an excellent seminar run here in 2007, in advance of the Olympic / Paralympic Trials in Newport. Lots of guys who had been running mark boats for years all came away saying that they learned a ton.
One of the most useful things was an exercise where they were all given handheld VHF radios and handheld GPS units, and were set free on a huge grass field to check the wind, set a "course" and do change marks, etc.
"Psychology" Matt? Please explain.
