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.
Steve and Arwen

Welsford navigator videos on YouTube

I got bored. I couldn't help it! I lost it after a 14 hr day working - 6.30am in school; teaching all day including lunch and after school; returning home to do another four hours prep for tomorrow.

I lost it 15 minutes ago - the plot that is and I succumbed; I started to trawl YouTube!

I know I should have been marking essays, planning my data analysis of Family Fischer Trust Predictions for my classes etc etc etc........but my brain died and gave up the ghost. I've worked five  65 hour weeks on the trot and I needed some respite!

So here are the fruits of my lack of persistence and dedication to the cause.............some recent 'welsford navigator' video clips posted on YouTube.

Enjoy!  I did!!

Shanghai 948 also has another video which I cannot seem to download here about sailing a navigator with a mizzen staysail. An interesting idea
