Final prep for Newport Bermuda Race 2014

The never ending list of things to do continues.  Final compliance for NBSR completed (included short wave radio receive, crew training confirmation, additional liferaft rental). Bermuda immigration completion at New York Yacht Club.  Yellowbrick Tracker fitted.   Non-required gear packed and loaded onto container for delivery to Bermuda.  Anxious wait for sails and liferaft delivery.  Now battening mainsail.

Not so anxious wait for Trevor, John and Ashley who turned up in time for crew party (pics on Twitter and Facebook) – surprise, surprise. Trevor apparently walked from NYC.  Will go out for training sail early evening and then quiet evening tonight despite Roger and Paul’s birthday.  Skipper’s briefing at 1700h.
