TANGO QUEBEC

Correct.

Sounds like Phil the Greek, always had a choice comment or two about foreigners...funny with him being a Greek and all that, ah well! I believe he was once overheard referring to a Chinese delegation as 'slitty eyed bastards'.

Looks like a small generational evolution of a regular Botin bulb and fin. Slightly confused with the 46 Bow number though.

That's because he doesn't have Windsor male genes...

Brilliant! New passports to be printed in France if I remember rightly.

Not seen that one before, very cool!

First event in Europe done for the Super Series boats at Palma Vela, new builds fill the top 5 spots with Azzura, possibly the longest time on the water, in first with Quantum, Platoon, Sled and Phoenix. Gladiator, back in her old war paint gets 6th, with the new Alegre 7th. http://www.palmavela.com/resultados/resulta/overall_tp52.html Going to be an interesting season as it's been a while since there were so many new boats on the line. Provezza have just launched in Ancona and will go straight to Sibenik to join the other boats for the first event.

Golf clap Ed, well played!

Warrior...Jason is a proper GC and builds a cracking boat!

Love an Arch Rival...twirls Moustache!

Jason has the shed space, but don't know how large his ovens are or if modular...then again a metric shit ton of money can solve the oven problem. Who knows if Jason would be willing to be tied to a cup team looking forward or whether he wants to stick to individual custom builds...watch this space

FinnFish, that's the second time you've mentioned Niklas pulling out of the 52s due to AC teams, he chose to step from that fleet to the Fast40 for a new challenge, work commitments and an ease of attending events based on the South coast over 3-4 days as opposed to 8-10 days in mainland Europe or Southern U.S. Another factor may (my conjecture) have been that the current Rán 52 had already been modded, so the feeling was there was no more potential to extract from the boat, with 9 new boats in build, build slots were limited. He and Catherine also placed their motor yacht up for sale...No doubt concerned that the AC teams might have a more expensive and bigger ones...

Orange Whip?, Orange Whip?, Three Orange Whips...

With no real content...Nice visuals though.
