Mal an anchor winch is not a winch it's a windlass or gypsy Btw you made my rigs yet

I make those mistakes at least weekly but I'm only human after all..........hummm I have heard a song about that

Not very often I share stuff on faceache but this warrants publicity

I've collected my last 2 boats in adverse conditions. The current one came from the Hamble round to Poole in a 6 Westerley straight on our nose with green water everywhere. Previous boat was at Lymington brought home to Poole in a strong 4-5 SW. Survived both trips and glad to have had the experience to build confidence but not sure the first foray out is the best one to get that confidence on Anyhow go out, play and have fun, that's what boat ownership is all be about.

Congratulations she looks a very capable craft

Your on, boat now full

Billy Your boat is more than capable for offshore trips. She should cruise at 16-18 knots so any marks off of Poole are within your cruising range. Some good advice from Dave re marks which I can't at this moment improve on but will at some point get my mark book off the boat and send some over to you Have a great day

Happy Birthday Charlie, have a great day

When we went up last weekend we burnt 265 litres going but we were at one point over 26 miles offshore hopping wrecks then into Portland, following day out to the shambles drifting and back into Portland before refueling. Engine hours were approximately 10.5 hours so just over 24 litres per hour. On the way up we did not turn the engine off even when drifting so that time includes a length of time at tick over. Not sure what we used coming home most of which would have been cruising but will fuel up at the weekend and post here

A4 Poster Bournemouth.pdf The Marine Conservation Society are doing a beach clean at Bournemouth Beach on Fri 2nd June 10am. Join us out and about in the fresh air to clean the shore. We're especially keen on encouraging those of 50 years & over to get involved, but all welcome of course. It’s a great way to keep active, meet like-minded people and to help both people and wildlife to enjoy and thrive on our beautiful coastline.
