DAY 3

Last night the coaches found out an amendment to the SI's had been published and the plan is to do three races today . Jo is wondering if her arms will survive ..

We are at the point when we have a series of minor niggles as sailors are getting tired and worn out .. Sarah got confused about where she had lost her phone ( in Megan and Annabels room ) . Ben G has a sore nose, Harry had an argument with a loo seat and the loo seat won.. But the good thing is  that in this Hotel we get clean sheets very day .. what luxury is that .. but after finding this room yesterday clearly random room inspection is not working so room tzar will be on the prowl again. The cash seems to be going ok although how some sailors spend all the money and seem to have  plenty I dont really know. The best value sems to be to eat at the club Andy, Carla, Jonny and Neil had supper for just over 100 pesos including a beer each at £5 a head. Coffee, icecreams, soft drinks are all about 8 pesos

Yesterday afternoon Jonny took out the RIB so Charlotte Fitz  and Kat could get a feel of the conditions and Mike Wood took Neil as his gash crew , (Hermione was under serious orders to rest and grow four inches and put on 10kgs ie to become Ben G ) .The conditions were such that we would not have been racing . FRA were out training as well and the leading FRA girls Le Maitre  broke her mast .

Back to the routine today fitness at 8am , breakfast at 9 and briefing at 10 in the office before hitting the boat park. Annabel and Megan will be in the yucky yellow bibs today..
