One more night till the race

The big day is tomorrow and then at 9.30 my first translemanique will start.

If you would like to follow the race you can do this on: suiviregate
You will find me either as Andrin Hunziker or Mic Mac under the SU class.

Over the last days I was quite busy with preparations:

I managed to go for a last training outing with Tim H. and Andrés(thanks a lot)
I cleaned the whole outside, Deck and Hull (including the underwater parts).
Waterprooved my sailing gear
Checked my torch
Got new spinnaker sheet and a handheld flare
Checked the sails
Changed some old ropes on Mic Mac
Lubricated all pullies and tracks with silicon spray
Prepared lots of food
Made sure I have some music if I run out of wind
Packed some warm clothing for the cold condisions(max of 16 degres during day/max of 9degres at night)
Got a camera of Michal to film some parts of my race( thank you Sir)
Got some additional sailing gear of Tim H (thank you Sir)
Rob tested the rig tension, wich is a very time consuming job (thank you Sir)
Got lots of encouragement and advice and via email ( thank you all)

I am sure I could have done lots more before the race, but I feel with the resources and time I had to prepare, I should be able to enjoy and try to sail as best as I can!
