The official entry list has now been released. This is the document that finally confirms our position in the Mini Transat 2007.
This year required 3,100 miles to make it into the final 75 (up from 72 last Transat). This compares with 1,240 miles that was required to make the cut for the Transat 05. Our 16th place on the year is reward for the miles raced in the Atlantic circuit this season where we raced every race apart from the Chrono (time trial event).

The Paris Boat Show (Salon Nautique de Paris) traditionally marks the official opening of entries for the following years's Mini Transat. It was again the case this year and many mini sailors gathered to submit their entries of the Mini Transat 2007. The first weekend of the show also sees the hosting of the Assemblée Générale (AG) - the meeting of Classe Mini members. I travelled from London to France via Eurostar for the weekend to hand deliver my entry and attend the AG.
For myself, the weekend also provided an opportunity to meet with sail makers and finalise decisions on who I'd like to design next years sail wardrobe. After considerable thought, I've decided to go with Remi from the All Purpose loft in La Trinité sur Mer. The All Purpose loft have a both a strong involvement and good track record with Minis.
