What are your best Olympic memories?

Simon: The Sydney Olympics was really exciting - it was brilliant fun sailing and just a really good vibe.

What is your aim for Athens?

Simon: The point to prove is that we're number one in the world. We've shown that over the past couple of years and we'd really like to cap that off with the big event.

What are your strengths?

Chris: Simon's a fantastic team mate - he has a great work ethic and hunger for it. We have a lot of fun and sail a great boat ... and have a good time.
Simon: Chris is calm, collected very focussed and a great person to sail with.

Is Simon a 'father figure'?

Chris: What, in terms of age?! ... No he's not a father figure, just a bit older - it's hard work keeping up with his rate sometimes!

If you weren't sportsmen, what would you be?

Steve: ...drunk!
