	I have been asked by many SOLers who belong to the “ Italian Team” …sometimes called Armada….to represent here on their behalf the grief for the “ too early over the line” departure of Finn …….. I have also been asked to extend to his family the Choral sentiment of condolence and sorrow. Many of the ITA Team have had contact/s with Finn over QTVLM issues and have gained a lot from his expertise and unconditional availability. So ….here it is ……done with pleasure. Piero …. On behalf of the entire Italian SOL Team

	Finn... you will live on as an inspiration of how enthusiasm, hard work, and a bit of boldness can achieve so much with so little resources. I enjoyed working with you. You were a great friend. Good bye

	Fair winds Bimmer. Very sad news hearing of your passing. I was hoping to meet you IRL one day. You will be missed. Condolences to the family. An inspiration to all of us on SOL in the virtual world, I can only imagine how he must have been larger than life in the real world.

	So many words said, what can I add? We will miss you, Finn, your always good humour and matter-of-fact approach to life, and all the working together on set-ups, particulars, race descriptions, time lapses and all the rest. In your memory we plan to race a PYOC from Copenhagen to Svendborg. We will all think and talk of you more then. An announcement will be appearing soon. Clipping along

San Francisco to New York 2022
Cornelius Vanderbilt, who made his money - that his descendants enjoyed to spend sailing and racing yachts - by recognizing that getting from the East Coast to the West Coast of the USA was best done by rail, would have been more than a little amused to see SOL organizing yacht races over the very route by water he made redundant. It's about 13,000 nautical miles, which compares with less than 3000 statute miles by train! Six years ago, the best SOLers managed to complete the passage from San Francisco to New York in around 36 days, sailing our much-used veteran ocean greyhound, the Super Maxi 100. Time to try again, this time on the VO70. If you aim for a SOG of 18kn, it'll only take you a month.
