"A quick note to express my thanks for a great weekend sailing, I am very impressed with the high standard of maintenance of your yacht Galaxy. Pete and yourself are doing a great job.
 It was great to be able to spend so much time developing my skills on the helm and understanding how to trim the sails in high winds and also how to squeeze more power from the sails in lighter winds.
 Meeting you both, and Simon, was great fun which help contribute to fabulous weekend."  Stephen
