Yes, videos please

Check out this (it might be quite new - good value HD?): http://uk.oregonscientific.com/cat-Outdoor-sub-Action-Cam-prod-ATC-Mini-Action-Camera.html

 A headcam using this might complement a 'fixing a la Roland' (just inside the starboard shroud) to get 2 angles to edit together into an awesome video.

Places are selling them for £99 (we're getting one)

We had our GoPro there but ran out of time before racing to attach it to the boat. Head strap ordered for just such an occasion. No photos either. I'm not sure about the other chaps.

I am afraid that you had to be there to see how good sun sand and 20ktg of wind can be.

The previous day was the 40kt wind day, the race officer started us just to the side of the bar ... I am no wave-ometer, but I am guessing 3m, and not very regular - was quite epic !

In the past I've seen some mighty seas coming in over the Chichester bar after a south wester

Sam and I did the right thing and got a really solid sail in at Bartley. Everything is working now on Loco...and we DIDN'T CAPSIZE
