Your boat may be laid up for the winter so why not enter a boat in this internet race game on the Volvo Ocean Race website which commences on Sat 11 Oct. If you enter a boat why not post your name of boat, if we get enough we can always have our own championship to take us through the winter months.

I think this must be the closest to Fantasy Football for Sailing.

Here's the link to register a boat.

My boat name....well it had to be "Isobel"
