Repairs complete 24 Dec,06 - 10.07

They say three is a luck number. Repairs are complete, rudder cable re-enforced and a back up system has been put in place. Will be starting my third attempt shortly.
While we were busy with the repairs, the Coastguard has been alerted to past rescues and the risk. And the fact that an ocean rower was lost at sea in 2004. They have imposed new restrictions with immideate effect, including filing papers for new safety requirements, additional flares and a 300,000 Eur cover.
Anyway, cracking thru the paperwork. Will just have to KBO.
Hope to start the third attempt in the next few days.
Will keep you posted.
All the best to everyone for '07!
