Ahoy Leigh.
Some time ago I believe you emailed me but I lost your contact details. A mate of mine Darrell MacGregor Loundes is a Ferrari / Italian nut and loves everything Italian. In fact he calls himself Dario Ferraio! He has just emailed me and your name came up so I thought I would email you. You will not believe how close your comments are to mine. They are nearly a mirror image – ‘Scary’. I’m a classic boat enthusiast and have raced yachts all my life including coaching at two Olympics – LA and Korea and I’m still doing it at 73. If you ever get downunder then contact me and I will take you sailing on Sydney Harbour on our Marten 49 yacht ‘Original Sin’.
Fair winds,
