On the eighth day of Christmas.....
Back in the late 1990s, it seemed that the route to long term survival was to go asymmetric. The 5o5s considered this, but stayed with a conventional spinnaker, albeit one that ended up a whole lot larger!
The book telling the story of the 5o5 is nearly ready for publication, but author Dougal Henshall is letting you help choose a great photo for the cover. Each day we will see one of Christophe Favreau's pictures posted, then at the end readers will be allowed to comment with their vote.
