Så här skriver Hubert när han beskriver det hela:

Hey Anders

Yeah that is a pretty awesome opportunity! I am looking forward to it!!! Well we found our sponsor Peugeot pretty late in September. But we have been able to secure a really good boat a First 45 with a carbon rigging! If the wind is South we might have a chance to win!

Training has been pretty full on since november. 1 or 2 full day on weekends with every crew member. We leave friday night and come back sunday morning plus 3 evening sail during the week. This upcoming we is the Rolex regatta windlardleeward for two days! I will have to be well rested! How is Malmo? Boats are out of the water alreday? FYI its 25degrees here!

Hope evrything is great!

Cheers
Hubert
