Subject: Thanks for invite

Hello Faruk and other EMYR Committee Members,
First of all, many thanks for the invite to participate in the 2009 EMYR. We will be unable to accept the offer as Y-Not and her crew will be back in Australia by then. The end of our 9 year circumnavigation is almost upon us.

We are currently home in Australia for the cyclone/hurricane season and Y-Not is safely tucked up in a Marina in New Zealand. We plan to return to the yacht at the end of March this year and will then sail to Fiji, Vanuata and New Caladonia before arriving on the east coast of Australia in late August or early September.

The most memorable time of our sailing in the Med is the time we spent in Turkey and in particular the EMYR. We wish all the Committee Members and past and future participants our very best wishes and fair winds and calm seas.

Faruk, please note our email address as the stratosnet.com address will be no longer available. Please amend your records.

Thanks and kind regards
Sue & Ross Barnett
