Round Britain and Island sailing race

I know it is with rags and sticks but looking at the latest info, I see Doug from Stormforce has a boat due in and also Jimbo is on a Clipper and due in. A good hard race by all accounts from those who have finished.
Here is a link to see http://sevenstar.rorc.org/

Relatively long race - difficult to make the Clipper Tubs perform under IRC. Shame to note that despite coming in ahead of Cheeki Rafiki (Doug's boat) he will almost certainly beat us on rating!

Good experience, and great to see the UK coastline all (most of) the way round

Jimbo, seeing most of the coast line of the UK guarantees a poor place in the RBI race.
