  Regattas - Optimist Worlds

And the best wishes for the team at the Optimist Worlds in Uruguay keep coming:

Sender's Name: Graham Robertson
Message: Hi Guys
It's great reading your news and seeing the results. Sounds like things are tricky there. Relax, focus on your strong points, get clear air at the start and maintain that clear air. Most importantly, keep on enjoying yourselves to the maximum. All the best and walk tall.

Graham


Sender's Name: Paul and Ash Crosland
Message: Dear Guys. Sorry no fax for breakfast tomorrow as we are sitting in the middle of the Kalahari desert. However we are still constantly thinking of all you wonderful guys. Michael, keep up the consistency. You have done very well for your first worlds, we are VERY proud of you. Please keep focused and enjoy yourself, only 4 races to go. To the rest of you, remember, it ain't over until the fat lady sings! Lots of your competitors will have one foot on the plane home already. Stay focused until the end and you will shoot up the ranking. You must remember you are all very special kids, not many children will have the opportunity that you guys have had. It has been tough but some of you, specially Alex, have an opportunity to go to another worlds, possibly 2 and your day will come.

Finally, we have to thank Alison and Pete for their devotion to sailing and to these boys. This campaign has taken up a lot of their time in preparation.

Finally just a small word of thanks to the supporters, Andrew, Sally, Lynne and the young girls.

Paul and Ash
