Team UKWA Worlds sponsors
Hi Al, glad my e-mails are
getting through. ... Sponsors are: Canadian Pacific (2 'free'
containers, I think), Banks (sailmakers), Selden Masts
(loan of masts) & last but certainly not least, Porter Bros.
who organised loading used their staff to help, etc. etc. etc.
We're having Team Photos made for each of them & framed with
'thanks from the UKWA Team written across them. The UKWA
sponsored us with the Team shirts which I organised. Thanks, Liz
