We've got a long weekend
Knock off in the morning, neither of us have to be back at work until Tuesday night
Yay! Let's go sailing ...
Well no, actually, lets not :(
Forecast for Sunday and Monday is bucket loads of heavy rain and F5/6 gusting F8 :O
I think not. So now it looks like we might take a drive down to the Southampton Boat Show on Saturday morning, find somewhere to stop over darn sarf on Saturday night and then spend the rest of our glorious long weekend on indoor chores at home
There are a couple of things I want to have a look at so the trip to the boat show isn't a total indulgence. I want to cast an eyeball over the Habitent cockpit enclosure for one thing. I think even the smaller size is going to be too big for Brigantia but at £360 it's a third of the price of having a custom cockpit tent made so its worth a look.
I also want to look at whisker poles and maybe talk to one or two sailmakers to get some idea the cost of new sails.
Not that new sails will be worth it if we never actually get to go bloody sailing!
Yours,
Frustrated of Fambridge
