Can you let me know if you are sailing this one, with details of
boats and options

I plan to be taking part in this. The Class 40 boats are
becoming familiar to me and I will probably do the IMOCA as
nearest to the Vendee boats and in Lieu of Clipper. Options
later.
It'll be a change from the Caravelles to be able to point a bit
and get some speed!

Sorry to have been off the air for a while. I'm in for this,
too, in a Class 40 with reaching sails.

I see Alex Thompson is registered for this in the new Hugo Boss
machine. I'm really looking forward to seeing how well this
goes. Also I'm keeping a watch out for Will Harris on Malizia
II.
IMOCA - I'll take most of the sail options for this one, in an
attempt to keep up. But I'll probably leave the winches behind
and try not to change course too often. (LHR/f-p)
Class 40 a more modest setup with light sails and Code 0.
(L-R/--p)

Saw Hugo Boss foiling across The Solent a while ago - beast of a
boat. Will Harris also one to watch after his performance in Le
Figaro.
Good sailing everyone.
