Plans to go for a spot of last minute training were scuppered as the raft of yachts grew. We were 3rd out on Fri aftie but by pub chuck out there were 5 other yachts out from us. On Sat more arrived and the only way to leave wouldn't have made us many friends so plan B was activated. St Helier is a small place that is remarkable for the small no of pubs and bars - so few I decided I could do a survey of WiFi coverage at each one!! By the time we returned to the yacht the raft was huge - approx 10 rafts each 10 yacht deep - impressive. Equally impressive was the race welcoming reception at the St H Raddisson - canapés and free flow vin! The speech went over our heads but we met the Prime Minister of Jersey in the post speech mingling! The rest of the night was spent in Pizza Hut networking with the Jersey 'lecy team & their the Brizzel born boss.
