Sailing :)
Jan. 28th, 2011 07:56 pmSo, Fastnet details finally starting to come through today. Joining instructions for all the qualifiers and the Fastnet itself, plus a name and brief bio of the skipper (no crew details yet, think I'll have to wait until Feb for that).
So, the skipper is a young Navy guy - marine engineering officer in training - which is all good, probably means lots of energy and enthusiasm. I'd prefer a younger crew, rather than old codgers, and I wouldn't mind being the only woman - truth be told I'm happier in male company (never really got the hang of the girly stuff, truth be told). Whatever, the crew will be sound, we'll all there for the same thing, the thrill and the love of the ocean, kindred spirits :)
Anyway, we'll see.
Can't wait!
