Peter,
Thanks for telling us foreigners about the race and Ellen in your last
Nancy Blackett newsletter. I went to the Kingfisher page, and signed up
for the almost daily reports. I can't imagine anyone doing what Ellen is
doing, on their own. It has been really exciting to occasionally get an
audio report in her own voice, after some horrendous task like her climbing
the mast to replace her weather instruments. It has been very strange to
get daily reports from boats as far south and isolated as they were.
A'donf, Ellen!!
