Quotes from the crew:

• "Awesome!  prague was beautiful - the racing was tough and hard - winning the gold medal was a buzz and quite a surreal sensation - a totally fantastic experience - one i am amazed to have been a part of and it still makes me smile."
• "It is still a bit surreal even with the gold medal in my hand but it goes to show, all good things comes to those who are patient - a bloody
  long wait (25 years)."
