I was sailing on Zebahdy, an Oyster 49 filmed during the regatta from helicopter ... can you spot me ...

 

  

 

Generally the wind was good making the racing exciting.  Seeing the 82's go screaming past was always a buzz, especially when the whole fleet of 34 yachts were flying chutes or spinnakers.  At one point we touched 10 knots which felt great.

 

The evenings involved dinner and wine at some great restaurants and even a club in a cave which saw us partying until the early hours.  There was a great mix of people - young and old, owners and wannabe owners, relaxers and partyers.  As well as spending the time with the owners of Zebhady I also got to know loads of great people as well as catching up with old friends Marco and Jill who run Palma Maritime, a yacht management and charter company based in Palma.  Oh yes, couldn't forget Toby, Marco and Jill's Pointer who has worked out that he can use the lilo's in the pool to try and get his dog toys that have gone astray.
