Mutley #93 goes to New Quay YC
Good timing was key to get Mutley93 to its beach berth in NewQuay
Low tide was at 4pm and it was dropping anhour or so before
with the car loaded with what i needed we set off for its new home.
nothing came undone this time. we parked on the jetty and quickly unloaded Mutley on wheeling it down the large stone slip the trolley wheel decided to come off after losing its pin .
with a screwdriver in place i dragged the boat along the foreshore to where it had to go, however the wheels where not the best for soft sand.
the new cover was unfolded and Mutley tucked away in its new spot
with a celebration icecream we made our way home. the road trailer was now very light and bounced all the way home .

New Quay Yacht Club
well the 2022 adventure was well under way, ive joined NewQuay Yacht club to sail the D Zero. also do crewing for the cruisers.
having been ripped off by the parking machine above the harbour i went to meet Peter to see the club. it was decided about the beach for the boat and then about cruisers needing crew , so Carl and Wendy got me on board asap.
i will aim to sail Dzero midweek and cruiser race any other time
things looking up as its a great venue to sail at
Mutley93 escapes the flood
october 1st the rains had been going for some time and the waterlevel was already on the foreshore, with more rain over saturday and Sunday i decided to make a mad dash in the car to collect Mutley93 roads were busy but it had to be done , a good trip up and ventured down the lane side of the lake to see the views.
we arrived at 6pm and were done by 7pm ,all was tied down well or so we thought.
at Aberystwyth rbt to head home the lightboard came off so we pulled over tried to fix it back on. a few other things ad we were on our way.
the trolley needs bolting down as it judders on bumps , lightboard needs better pintle brackets.
