Crew

[azziria]

Dinner with the crew this evening, seriously good fun, they seem like a good and varied bunch, with a range of ages (18 - 63) and experiences (one complete novice to a couple of Yachtmasters). Ended up with a stroll down to the harbour to take a look at the Challengers moored in the marina.

We don't know which of the Challengers will be ours yet. Apparently 4 is the fastest for some reason (in theory they're identical, but...) and two of the four will be getting new sails before the Fastnet, but none of the skippers know which two yet.

Our skipper, M, is young (mid 20s) but clearly knows his stuff, is obviously a people person, and seems to have the gravitas to do the job. So all good.

Can't wait to actually get on the water next weekend :)
