Great race - great result!

You might think that the above relates to Jenson Button winning in Monaco. Whilst this was very exciting, the title actually refers to us winning a yacht race on El Coyote - yippeeee!
We are sure El Coyote has won previously, but this is the first time that we have won on it. Yippeeee!
What a fabulous sporting weekend it was. After our victory on the water, we rushed down to Nubaa (aka The Standard) to watch Jenson and he didn't let us down. This was followed by the great news that Hull City have stayed up (shame for Newcastle), and that Rangers won the SPL.



We haven't got a photo of yesterday's race as we were shorthanded and too busy. The above is from the Pattaya Mail, (more column inches) following our podium finish at Top of the Gulf Regatta. We are sure you will recognise Alison and Thane who were obviously discussing racing tactics whilst enjoying a cider.

Tomorrow we set off for the Ko Samui Regatta. A gentle four day cruise down there followed by six days hard racing.

Bye for now Alison and Garry
