Thanks Mal - I certainly hope that you get your insurance travails sorted out and look forward to a Château Relaxeau stay. I'm not terribly sanguine about "Zanshin" sailing again but did spend time yesterday at the boat show in Düsseldorf talking with Sparcraft for a new rig, Elström for new sails and Jeanneau for the other parts. Of course the BVI isn't making things easy with their duties and charges, either.
