No idea.
You'd need to do a 'roll call'.
I expect Nick would like another crack at it, so...
1) SwipeWipes.co.uk
2) Gordon Compton (just guessing here)
3) Goldfish x ?? (guessing again
4) Vildarib
5) Jamie Edwards (says he wants to do more endurance stuff)
6) Team Arse Bandit
7) Team Garmin
8) Marcus Hendricks?? surely he'd be back!
9) Drew & Jan ??
10) Andy Racketeer ??
11) Johnny Caulcutt ???
12) Hannes Bohinc, so long as the commitee stop all the panaly stuff
13) 558 Cinzano ? they have unfinished business!!
14) Tom & Chuck W-H
15) Free Willy the scanner rib mebbe??
16) Streako
17) Blind dog
Mebbe Martin would make another appearance to disprove the rumours of ski racers being scared of rough water!

By the time we got to Scotland i thought never again. By the time we got to Lowerstoff and done most of it on 1 engine i thought lets get the preparation right and i will have to do it again. Much cheaper next time as i don't have to buy a boat

The boat needs 480 Yanmars, but Jeff already knows that.

I don't know where you guys are going with this but I will chuck something in the pot. We missed out big time with the Yanks. Could have had five boats plus another two from the Med if we had put up the RB1 cc to unlimited!!! They love their triple big block supercharged engines and there are hundreds of those boats out there. We don't have ANY races for them, at the moment. The CTC would have been a good run for them

I was trying to demonstrate how much interest and keeness there is out there for a repeat. Such a great job done in the face of huge advercity by Old Man + team, that much of the hard work has been done once, so should be considerably easier second time around.
Mike you also said at a number of the meetings that potential sponsors had said that they may/would be interested in sponsoring it second time around, but did not want to put their neck on the line for the 'first' event. So again keep striking while it is still hot. Please get those keen to take up the reins to do so soon and keep the momentum going, maybe the next start line will have 75 boats on it !!!
with utmost respect to Mike Lloyd + team.

Gosh - what a brilliant idea - I wonder why no one thought of that before? - Oh, they did, I forget.
