Honor takes us down Portsmouth Harbour under instruction (she's growing up), and drove the boat for 3 Nautical miles down the Port Solent Channel.

Jude try's Zee's new hat with the 3D cinema glasses just for good measure.

Honor and Jude fishing for supper, Honor at the helm, moored up and teak decking on stern.

Honor with Zena's new hat.......she's needs no encouragement!

May 23rd 2010 at Port Solent

Bimini Hood tilted back making her a real sun trap....!

May 22nd-24th 2010 temperatures reach 30 degrees C at our Home Port Marina, we spent the weekend cleaning Greek Princess for the summer season and topping up our tans at the sane time.......

May Bank Holiday 2010 Brighton Marina

We decided to take the boat to Brighton for the May Bank Holiday, the weather wasn't great though and the sea state was F7 (rough) which made the journey a bit difficult.

But as ever 'Greek Princess' got us there and back safe and well.

February 2010 deep snow in Hampshire UK

Deep snow and Oyster Quay iced over........
