Joey Allen; he was in Kingston with Lindsay Kennedy, finished fairly
well up I think; did 1/2 a Whitbread on Flyer and won on Yamaha, did mid
bow on last two Team NZ boats.

Matthew Smith; has a current sistership to my boat, done four Whitbreads
(Outward Bound, NZI, Fisher & Paykel, Tokio), poor bugger has been
second into Auckland three times by very short distances.

Nick Willetts; sailed in Melbourne and has done two Whitbreads.

Glen Sowry; sailed 14 in Melbourne time before last (96/97?) - he does
the commentary on the graphics on the TV here for the AC races, I think
Glen did 3 Whitbreads plus maybe the last two legs of the last one. Won
on Steinlager & NZ Endeavour.

Dean Barker; steered Team NZ on the last race this time; did the
previous South Pacifics we had in Auckland in 1993 and a nationals in
1997.

Matthew Mitchell; regular 14 crew, sailed in SF, does bow for Team NZ
backup boat, also did the bow on One Australia the one and only time
team NZ were beaten on the water. (back in 1995)
