At the moment I'm looking at making a database with all possible sailing related sites, magazines, ... around the world.

If anyone would like to add one, please pm me, I will give you access to an online excell file.

Thanks.

They also send out a daily email update, mostly US events but lots of America's Cup drama and other large international regattas too. Oh, if you need to be a "member of a Yacht Club" you can download their memembership card for free, print and laminate it, then flash it to get into any real hoity toity YC.

I doubt if Ms. "O" is aware of the Tornado fiasco. Perhaps we should inform her.

I wish Charlie and John had done better, then we might have a better case. I would really like to know "what went wrong" with our entire team, I thought it was a very poor showing with only 2 medals total. Is that the lowest medal count we have had in Sailing in quite a while? Amazing for a country of our size, population and wealth. Perhaps they should put Jet Ski's in the Olympics, then we might do better... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
