Setting Up L'Eau Commotion
12 June 2019 | 20 Miles East of Bateman's Bay
Day 6 9am Thursday 13th June 2019
I did promise to say a few words about the changes I have made to L'Eau Commotion so after a little prompting here goes. This is a picture of the yacht taken on 16th June 2016 soon after I bought her. The yacht was just as described by the broker and nicely set up for tropical cruising with lots of covers and awnings, though for the intended purpose much of it was superfluous. I began by removing the anchor winch and its 80 metres of 10mm chain. Next went the extensive awnings over the rear cockpit, the rubber ducky and its davits. I'll note here I can only transmit one picture at a time over the Iridium Go so I will go to my next post
