The Three Peaks Yacht Race

 

On & Up

Awaiting Team Photo

Having wanted to do the race for about 20 years, Andy’s email entitled “Is this a mad idea or what?” finally elicited the correct answer and a team and a boat were found.

Definitely in the “teams who hope just to complete the course” category we secretly harbour a hope that we might at least get on the Tillman Trophy ‘medals table’.  The main effort however will be raising money for Breast Cancer Haven (http://www.justgiving.com/3-Peaks-Yacht-Haven) & Help for Heroes (http://www.justgiving.com/3-Peaks-Yacht-H4H).
