7th August 2011 we arrive in East Cowes for our Summer Holiday

We arrive after a fairly eventful crossing when the anchor came adrift in a force 6/7 and plunged 30M which I had to recover and hall in in heavy sea's...not for the faint hearted. Anyway we all arrived well set the dinghy up with the new Yamaha 2.5HP outboard....no more rowing!

Doesn't look much but it sure makes life a bit easier when running up to cowes marina.

20th July 2011 On the side at Eastlands

GP on the side having been polished the leg has been removed for servicing but

still awaiting antifouling.

11th July 2011 at Port Solent on the fuel waiting pontoon.

Zena and I wait to take on fuel prior to heading off to Easlands Boat Yard on The Hamble for GP's annual lift for antifoul and service, conditions were calm and sunny......first time we've have had to go out for over two months, as we have been working flat out on refurbishing the new flat.
