We saw that Playstation in Ramsgate over the weekend. Just turned up after breaking the round Britain record.
It is very impressive indeed close up. It looks wider than it is long, and the mast seems to touch the sky.
Mind you it does 40 kts. The crew said it makes quite a wash at that speed. Could turn the power v sail argument on its head !!!
Had a drink in the Royal Temple with Steve Fossett. Nice chap. (for a millionaire).
The rest of the crew have to get the boat back to the South Coast. Bet they aren't going today.
For anyone who hasn't seen this site, take a look at

and thank God you are not at sea today.
Please insert your smart ass pretentious tag line here...
