Haslar Berth Holders Party - 13th May 2017

We headed to the boat for the weekend for Haslar's Berth Holders Party, whilst Zena was keeping little Zena occupied, I took the time to add permanent dock lines to our new mooring. I managed to adapt most of the old lines for the ECA Mooring, so just need one new line.

Managed to use the old dock line shackles

All new permanent dock lines added

Glorious afternoon after having completed the dock lines

East Cowes - 27th April to 1st May 2017

We headed to East Cowes for the May Bank Holiday for a break, and to support our new friends from the cross channel cruise Bill & Karen who were doing the IOW challenge. The first few days were sunny but the wind and run set in on Sunday so we headed back early having to abort the first attempt due to F7 winds and 4M waves.
