Thats great .My arrangements are not ideal i have got the camper and boat but because i have left everything till the last minute due to work have only been able to book bed and breakfast for thurs ,fri,at the falcon hotel and the rest of the stay looks like the car park in the van very cramped with three.Myself and son and freind both sixteen with smelly feet.I am desperately trying to find something else even to be able to pitch small tent .I have never been there before it came recomended.Do you want to meet up if so call me on 07940 725245.Are you taking your boat.If not maybe you,d like to come out that offer goes to anyone else to please call Peter

we are racing in Buzzi Bullet 3, very similar to BB2 but it now has room for 4 standing rather than tandem seating for 2. Boats on its way across france at the moment so plan to go testing tomorrow .
Buzzi bullet has been chartered and will be racing against us, just hope we beat them!

I think the round the island race has been changed to a circuit race - there is something about it on the P1 website.
