A real boat!
21 August 2015 | Town Quay Marina, Southampton
Gillian
Finally, after what seemed a very long wait, and having to explain to everyone in the marina that 'No, we weren't dismasted, we are just getting new rigging done'
- we finally have the mast up with brand new rigging and a cutter rig added (so we can use a staysail when the weather is not great).
Can't believe it is just about the end of August and still haven't managed a sail yet :(
Tomorrow the plan is to get the sails sorted and perhaps, if we are lucky, go for a little shakedown cruise.....
Otherwise, next weekend is a long weekend - hopefully the weather will hold out until then.
