I can't see Ellen Macarthur and Pete Goss passing up the chance, somehow. Both raving nutters, and both incredibly brave.
Match-racing in general doesn't do too much for me - I much prefer fleet racing. It's the same way the Tour de France is more interesting than watching two blokes cycle round a velodrome for half an hour. I've never match-raced myself, but I used to love being out on the river when I was a kid, dinghy or cruiser racing.
