Runners Needed for Three Peaks Yacht Race 2013
Mike Jaques is an experienced racing skipper who is looking for two good runners to join his boat "Nunatak" this year. He is aiming to win the event overall having been third in previous years.
There is no cost involved as all you have to do is get yourself to Barmouth for the start on 14th June and then back from Fort William on or around 17th/18th depending on wind and tides (there will be plenty of others heading south to catch a lift from).
Sailing experience would be useful but not essential as you'll just have to concentrate on the three runs and possibly a bit of rowing if the wind dies!
Details of the race can be found on http://www.threepeaksyachtrace.co.uk/
Mike is also looking for runners to join him on the Scottish Islands Peaks Race from 15th May.
Details of this can be found at http://www.scottishislandspeaksrace.com/
Mike's wife Pam is a doctor who kindly stopped to help me when I had my accident at Langdale.
If you are interested please contact Mike on mike@nunatak.co.uk or Pam at pam@nunatak.co.uk and they'll be able to give you any further info you need.
Bon voyage.
