All at sea

I'm heading out to sea for a week, sailing with a couple of friends.
Not sure if I'll be able to log on so often but I'll try.
I've altered the rig on my boat somewhat and it will be interesting to see if the old girl sails a bit faster.

Have a nice and safe journey than, Phil, or should I better say : HAPPY SAILING?


cheers Joe
MrDuck

Why did you get a sail boat if you want to go fast

I'm pleased with my sail boat though

Have fun at sea Bugsy, do not drink too much rum and beware of the pretty ladies you encounter on desolate islands

Hello Bugsy!
Have a safe and enjoyable sojourn on the briny! Just be careful where you come ashore - over here, any small boat is viewed as a potential refugee vessel now!!!!!

Yer not going Viking are you? Oh sure, going sailing for a few days with a few friends, just what Harold Bluetooth used to tell the missus.

At last I've got a bit of bandwidth.
Lots of rain but we are having a great time.

What a gorgeous boat. Nothing like sailing the sea and only hearing the wind. I have not done much sailing but what little I have done I love it. You are a lucky man indeed. Have fun and be safe.

I bought new winches and a few new blocks.
New lines also and re-ran them to the cockpit.
I don't really know if it's going faster but it feels like it.
