Brigantia has been sold


Brigantia has been sold!

After giving us three years of fun and joy and looking after her novice crew, Brigantia went to pastures new in the Autumn of 2013. This blog remains as an archive of our activities on board.

Our new yacht, "Erbas" has her own Ships Log

Charles Stock

Just heard the sad news that Charles Stock, author of "Sailing Just For Fun", passed away peacefully in his sleep last night.

His book was the catalyst that drew together my vague ideas about switching from plodding around in muddy ditches to sailing. His description of cruising the East Coast in a small boat inspired and guided many of the decisions I took in planning to buy Brigantia.

Sadly, we'll never now meet but his inspiring example will continue to show the way

RIP
