Apart from the skipper Christian Reynolds and first mate Lucy Jones the only thing I know about the 9 other people I am going to be racing, living, working, eating with for the next two to three weeks is their names :-
E.H.M..Verhulst, Andy Stakes, Christian Nauta , Dirk-Jan Schuld , Jerome Roret ,Judy Ross ,Mark Robertson, Erik van der Dussen ,Taco Van Der Dussen.
The previous owner of Northern Child, Julian Sincock told me that after 13 ARC crossings he felt that apart from safety, the most important aspect of the whole adventure, wasn't how fast the boat sailed but that everyone arrived in St Lucia as friends. Apparently in his estimation for at least 50% of the yachts on the ARC that doesn't happen!
