FB - So how come youre here at Yachting Key West Race Week doing your first major regatta in the Melges 24 Class? AG - I havent sailed now for about 2 months and I got asked to sail with some Americans whod raced with us in the IACC boats during Skandia Life Cowes Week.

000 saw huge improvements in the quality of class communications with the launch of www.melges24.com and the publication of the first edition of M24 magazine. The web site is now established and we've had great feed back from all sorts of sources.

There continues to be continued confusion as to exactly which regattas the trial jib battens can be used at. The definitive answer is that sailors can not use battened jibs at International events (ie those directly organised under the auspices of the International Class).
