Cockatoo Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 It's the nicest day yet, albeit our last full day. Never mind, only seven weeks until we are back 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cockatoo Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Sorry about the short posts but I was using my phone and fat-finger syndrome means that if I type a long post you can guarantee I will lose it before hitting the submit button From our point of view this week has been a total success, getting to know the boat, finding out where everything is and seeing how it handles in the wind (not as bad as I expected).

I bet you can not for your next allocation. Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cockatoo Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 And that is it. Boat clean, toilets pumped out and diesel full. The fuel Dock was a challenge having to moor with the wind but we managed Only 7 weeks to go 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
