G'day,
I am pleased to announce that James Brett

ideas off and to take over the drafting of the plans.
I am moving to the Gold Coast (just south of Brisbane on the east
coast of Australia) in July and have contracted with a builder to
build a 15m flat panel Solitarry. Hopefully this will be less of a
drama than the last one and will allow me to do some racing and
cruising. If (big if, given my record) it is all done on time, then
Brisbane Gladstone and the solo Transpac next year are on the agenda.
There have also been a couple of serious enquiries from Mini 650
sailors wanting to charter Solitarry's for the Route de Rhum in
November 2010. The organisers invited me to enter a harryproa, which
was nice, but we are now waiting for them to decide whether they can
alter some of their trimaran biased rules to allow us to be
competitive.
regards,
Rob
