Chris and Nigel did sail on the week before the French Nationals a warm up regatta at the sailing club Voile de Marseillan ( http://www.cvmarseillan.com ) with some 13 A-class catamarans in competition.
For a couple of sailors this regatta was also used as warm up, we do not know all the names competing but we know that Jeanne Le Coq, Micky Todd, Nigel Lovett and Chris where on the starting list and we heard there was another good french sailor at the list.

A more detailed report we hope to receive soon but a priliminary finishing list known by now is.
