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.

Doing some file housekeeping

I discovered this old film of Arwen semi completed - the decks were being placed on.......such untidy fillets and general epoxy mess - unforgiveable.

On a different note - whilst looking for something else - I came across these useful harbour guides on youtube.

I'm hinking of doing a bigger coastal excursion next week - possibly across to Looe and then returning the following day.......I'll research it and let you know.
