Pete Goss\'s boat....

'Cornwall Playing For Success' is coming through very fast indeed ( 2200GMT ), despite starting 2 hours behind the big IMOCA guys, and is now into home waters.

It will be interesting indeed to see how this wee and fragile boat, and its two not-so-fragile crew, get on over the next 24 hours or so. I'll be intrigued to see where they are by this time tomorrow night....

Oh, and the RAF's 'Red Arrow' has headed in for the night, after failing to get round Portland Bill. Probably not 'night-rated', but daylight only operations.....

Looks like Pete is home.

Re: Red Arrow

I tried to find Red Arrow on the Rolex site but I think the Tracking device has 'run out of hours'...

Lounge bar of the Yachtsman's Retreat, by the look of things.

Wilson, commenting from the White Hart - a well-known, sailors' drinking hole in Weymouth said: "We always had a cut off and said we wouldn't go beyond that cut off.

It rather looks like their cutoff time was 10 minutes before closing time......

TwisterKen and myself seem to have agreed on this - and got it right - this time.....
