Great stuff T & V!
Blowing a bit here today. Just saw 28 knots and it's set to increase to 1600. Anchor holding well so far. Amazing the load in that rode!

1.5m!
Does the longer berth come with a longer price tag? Backdated? Or did you get away with it?

I should say so
£608 more . All because of a little bow sprit and a bit of air space of the dinghy . To add to the pain they said I could stay in the berth I was in . So,more money for nothing
Told em if I'm paying for a 12mtr boat I want a 12mtr berth not a 10mtr one . anyway good point it's not backdated ...... If it was I'd be off ASAP .

We're not going further than Brixham until after the weekend but will shout when we head further afield.

We are off for 2 weeks from Saturday. Destination still unknown but will be afloat at least! Weather appears to be unusually good - so it probably won't last!

It looks amazingly good doesn't it! Will have to dig out the suntan lotion!
