Boatyard Dog has moved a bit further north and has now taken up residence at Clyde Cruising Club.
Yesterday was our first sail of the year and first in a N12 for nearly thirty years. We could have picked a better day - rather cold with a horrible gusty easterly blowing. Unfortunately I cannot blame the conditions entirely for our escapades, but I think it is fair to say that Jim and I have quite a lot of re-learning to do! However, as they say we are looking forward to the challenge. I will post occasional bulletins, just in case anyone is interested. Who knows we may encourage other "older and heavier" crews to give it a go.
Martin : N3495
