Great sailing skippers with a nail bitting finish.
After 18 days of sailing, about 1hr between Mike (Huckleberry
Finn) and Rob (Inspector Gadget). And an even closer finish
with Mike (HF) just holding off a chasing Roland in B9FUN.
Great sailing this leg with you guys. Now across to the Volvo
in the South Atlantic....

Thanks Guys, that was fun. I think I'll forget about the Volvo
although I'll try to finish the leg before it closes! Mike

Phew! Just made it ahead of B9. Good racing everyone and
thanks. Enjoy Freemantle and I look forward to seeing you on
the start line next time. Might add a few options next time!

No Guys, I just meant that I would forget about my bad position
in the current Volvo leg - not that I would quit the race
entirely! Apologies for the confusion do to my bad choice of
wording. Meanwhile a few beers in Freemantle, and see you all
on the start line on Dec 2nd. Mike
