Thanks to Catherine for this one: taken last day, Saturday 10th. If you'd like a high-def version, email me and I'll send. This version's pretty high-def as it is: just click on it, and then drag to your desktop if you want to print it. Two other nice crew photos are King's Cup 2010 and Samui 2011.
Thanks for the various messages of “thanks”, which Jing and I reciprocate to you all in full measure! Without you all and your expertise, Xena’s like an un-played violin: a beautiful instrument, but not making music. It’s with you guys we make music.
Jing and I really enjoyed the Regatta, despite the final pipping to the podium. And we’re looking forward to next year already... Mark it in your diaries: all of you are welcome back on board!
I’ll only be updating the Blog sporadically from now on, but do drop by there from time to time, or sign up to be notified of new posts ( http://xenakingscup.blogspot.com/). Feel free to post comments direct to the Blog. Also, the Xena Tracker is now working again (she’s 160 NM from Singapore, heading 130T at 7 kts SOG, with 5 knot westerly, as at half an hour ago)
There’s an updated list of our proposed races for 2012 on the Xena main site. ( https://sites.google.com/site/x55xena/2012-races). Comments and suggestions for more races welcome.
I’m also looking forward to discussing new ideas for “go fast(er)” or to reduce our handicap...
Have a great weekend, a relaxing remainder of the Year. We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
