first rig at home

 after a feeble attempt to rig the boat myself i had to call David Valentine to ask what rope went where

pictures were not enough so we had to go to a vid call which did the trick.

after 20 mins it was all sorted. after the call it promptly threw it down with rain and i got soaked.

about an hour later i went out and put it all away.

Mutley 96 is prov sold welcome Mutley 93

 mutley96 is provisional sold, the transfer to take place ina few more weeks to Gareth at Bedford.

so Mutley96 is at home until then but the new adventure began today 

with the purchase of A DEVOTI D ZERO #93 /117 from D Bailey Tewksbury S.C 


the 93 is a personal sail number but the boat is number 117.

hoping to have its first outing in the next week or so. watch this space  

the long trip started at 0630 heading to Aberystwyth and then main a44 all the way to Rydar and then onto Hereford, the trip was good and we made good time in the van.

we arrived at the club at 0940 so made some good time on the planned 1000 meetup

Tewksbury is a lovely sc on the river severn 





THE RETURN TRIP 

not having set up the satnav we went a completely different way home via M50 then eventually Abergavenny and then Brecon , with stops got home 1425  so pretty good going in some horrible wet conditions.
