Arwen's meanderings

Hi everyone and welcome to my dinghy cruising blog about my John Welsford designed 'navigator' named Arwen. Built over three years, Arwen was launched in August 2007. She is a standing lug yawl 14' 6" in length. This blog records our dinghy cruising voyages together around the coastal waters of SW England.
Arwen has an associated YouTube channel so visit www.YouTube.com/c/plymouthwelshboy to find our most recent cruises and click subscribe.
On this blog you will find posts about dinghy cruising locations, accounts of our voyages, maintenance tips and 'How to's' ranging from rigging standing lug sails and building galley boxes to using 'anchor buddies' and creating 'pilotage notes'. I hope you find something that inspires you to get out on the water in your boat. Drop us a comment and happy sailing.

rigging Arwen

Lars has just contacted me by email. he is on his way to completing his navigator and he is doing the sprit yawl standing lug rig and wondered if I had pictures of Arwen's rigging. Good question I thought to myself so I had a dig around my folders. Lars, I hope these help and I will try and get some better ones next week when we go out on the water

hey robin - how you doin - I'll post a load over next week or so when I get out on the water and I'm then hoping that people can come back to me and start saying - 'get rid of that'; 'sort that out' 'do this and that'

basically I have no idea what I'm doing which pretty much somes up me according to the wife!!
