Good luck to everyone and keep it altogether so that we can see you all in Edinburgh,

Weather looks like it could lump up a little once out of the Solent tomorrow.

Yeah, good luck to all espically the couple of faces I see from the forum. Whats the best guess for the first one to arrive in Plymouth? We will be on the water from 11ish so will see you at the first finish line.

Thanks Scand nice to see some pic's ...I have to agree with many others comments ML has done a truly amazing job of getting a team of no doubt mostly unpaid people like himself to put this fantastic event together and to generate the kind of enthusiasm to get nearly 50 entries together from offshore enthusiasts who have paid with considerable time and money to get to the start line tomorrow...I think Cookee said it best massive RESPECT to all involved...have a safe and most excellent adventure besides a good race of course
