The Three Peaks Yacht Race

 

Ben Folds Five aka 4 Pies and a Pasty

Orcana

Our team consists of 4 Scotsmen and a Cornishman. So at least we will know what Ben Nevis looks like. We all work together on a construction ship off of west Africa, we enjoy a challenge which i’m sure this will be.
One of our mottos for at least the first hour of the race is going to be…“Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever” (Lance Armstrong). Or as long as it takes to get ashore and find a pub.

Quotes "Although the Pies and Pasty Team has spent several years working together on the ocean waves, its experience level is somewhat spartan, comprising of only 1 experienced sailor, 4 sailing novices and no fell-runners! However, nautical experience levels are considerably bolstered in the form of their capable support driver! Confidence is high and ignorance is bliss! What could possibly go wrong?"   Media Contacts
