Yep, was following the ACWS, now eagerly waiting the next one. Guess I'll have to busy myself with my own racing action on the Chesapeake! :)

@VOR this is addictive! You should have declared a world holiday...!

by Filipa 7/2/2012 4:04:07 PM
@Filipa Put the motion forward and we'll second it, for sure

by Volvo Ocean Race writer 7/2/2012 4:04:24 PM
The car has a lot of distance to make up!

by nroose 7/2/2012 4:04:35 PM
Will any of these VOR boats show up on eBay next week? I want one for our city lake.

by Mark Welch 7/2/2012 4:04:37 PM
@DAlliFLA that's what I did last time... but I already know the old "seasons" - the only way is to go sailing myself :)

by Friedrich 7/2/2012 4:04:44 PM
NEED the DVD's set you guys are making now for us to buy from you right?

by Capt Joei 7/2/2012 4:05:01 PM
Lets have heavy compression, and then let Ian Walker, and even Mike Sanderson come out on top of G4. Puma left in front.

by Walkover 7/2/2012 4:05:08 PM
@ Filipa we had a national holiday here in Canada yesterday, that I used to celebrate the VOR ;)

by stief 7/2/2012 4:05:13 PM
Yes they will be on eBay and I'm going to buy one!
