Mishaps and Memories

Jul. 29, 2007 - Just a quiet marina weekend

Didn't sail this weekend...

 

Spent the whole weekend cleaning the boat....

 

She sparkles!

 

We also re-arranged the stowage... found room for 4 folding bikes.... amazing how much you can get in with a bit of intelligent packing...

 

New gas, full water tanks, full fuel tanks.... ready for our fortnight cruise in a couple of weeks....

 

Can't sail next weekend due to family commitments, so next time we are down, it'll be to go off  on hols!

 

Plans for the fortnight have changed somewhat.... we may be able to get a slightly extended holiday next summer, so we are going to leave the down channel cruise until then, and in the meantime, will instead, head for Holland again this summer...

 

Shame about all the passage planning i've for once done nice and early!

Glad to hear you finally managed to get them aboard. Should knock minutes off the trek to the foredeck.

You may laugh....

But I did ride one along the side decks!!!!!!

Or until I hit the shrouds anyway....

It had to be done!

Ironic, I just read your entry after posting my latest rant. Don't believe in Nietzsches theorum huh? LOL.

Best wishes and fair winds,

The Crew of Olivia....
