OK I'm not ready or able to give out the full details yet, but there is a proposal in the air for a one week speed comp in June 09.

It would probably mean flying for most of us. It would be in Australia.

Without disclosing the full details "Who would be prepared to take a week off in June, spend money on fares etc. To sail in warm and very windy tropical waters?"

Some responses please, and when the organisers feel ready they can give more details.

C'Moorn guys and gals, Speed is Back, it's big and people are willing to invest in it again, but without you interest and participation, the organisers and sponsors will pull back!!!!!!!!

Firie,
I think you know something we don't?

Does the spot have the words island and green in it or does it start with a C, end with an S and has airn in the middle?

There's only one place that blows consistent enough that time of year.

Yep could be interested.

I am the CEO of JP Pty Ltd

I've got a work ethic which has had a violent viral reaction to just the idea of working more 3 days work cancelled

I've just found out that it's going to be damn near impossible to get time off for the Al Green fortnight. Something in the middle of winter might be easier for me so, go for it.
