Join Jeanneau's Jean-Francois de Premorel and Phillipe Laperche as they race double-handed in the Transquadra Race aboard the Sun Fast 3600 (YOLO) from St-Nazaire to Madeira, hitting 21 knots.

Cheers/ You are very welcome, guess there will also be quite a lot of envy. Have you gone or the twin tillers or rudders? If you have not yet found the Fastrak FB pages, well worth looking at: www.facebook.com/FASTRAKSAILINGDon't let the 3200 reference fool you, Nigel's new boat is #002 of the 3600, I am sure he can also give you advice as required Malcolm

Twin tillers, carbon rig, hank on jibs, asym spins - all the usual go fast kit for double handed racing. Have been in regular contact with Nigel - was in UK last week and he kindly showed me a 3600 in the water so I could see how it was rigged etc. I think this boat is definitely going to mix things up with our DH fleet as she seems to punch above her weight when the breeze is up!
