Sailing

Post by DaveS »

No me! This fortnight should have been my main summer sailing trip but for various reasons (including the forecast) I cancelled it.

This is the first time in 30 years that I've cancelled my summer holiday so that I could work! Retirement wasn't meant to be like this...

Not me, Mistral is on the hard, and the new engine is in the back garden. Hope to unite them next week.

Pleased to find that the slime powerwashed off easily after 3+ years afloat - great stuff this fresh water.

Not this weekend - got home Sat afternoon and plan was to sail Saturday - Monday, but, other things happened, so no sailing.

Hoping to get away towards the end of the coming week though.

Was it this weekend Booby Trapper was hoping to go round the Mull?

Dereliction of duty

Post by cpedw »

I've not been allowed near the boat since 17th June but I'm hoping for a reconciliation next weekend, if I behave myself. Though from my locations in southern England,northern France and Edinburgh I gather I haven't missed much except perhaps this last weekend.
