Hi Everyone!
I couldn’t let the end of 2009 slip by without looking back on what has been an incredible year!
BT Team Ellen has had highs and lows - success in the Fastnet, the Round the Island Race, the Artemis Challenge, the iShares Cup and of course the sad ending to the Transat Jacques Vabre but overall we managed to build up a team - both on and off the water - that we are all proud of.
Seb, Nick and I joined Nathalie Queré from BT for a very emotional get together earlier this month at the World Yacht Racing Forum in Monaco and it was wonderful to look back on a fantastic three years.
The Ellen MacArthur Trust Skandia Round Britain Voyage of Discovery was a wonderful experience for everyone involved so I would like to say a big, big thanks to all the team at the Ellen MacArthur Trust - Frank, Jo, Tracy and Simon - for such an incredible trip and many memories that we will treasure.
2010 already looks set to be an exciting year and we are now busy setting up the Ellen MacArthur Foundation to work on sustainability…but more on that next year!
In the meantime, I would like to send you all my best wishes for a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy 2010!
Ellen
