AND THE FINAL RESULTS ARE NOW IN
 
Sixteen days after the start, and fourteen after Titania finished in St Lucia, we can now confirm the final results are now in and have been declared.
 
We are of course talking about the Titania sweepstake and not the ARC Race Committee results for the overall winner. We all had a guess at the final arrival time in St Lucia. The range of results ran between 18.30 hours on Sunday 9th and 1600 hours on Wednesday 12th December. I am pleased to announce that the winner, despite believing that November has 31 days instead of 30, is Freddie. The fact that he simply read the ETA from the nav computer (he was sitting near it at the time) is neither her nor there...
 
As a consequence, Freddie will be collecting his winnings equivalent to £80. This will take place shortly at the nearest bar, where the winner will tightly surrounded by his shipmates who will ensure he does not slip away before all the funds are exhausted.
 
Well done Freddie for your optimism in choosing our fast crossing time, despite lack of knowledge of the Gregorian calendar!
