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

packing a touring caravan

being new to this caravan touring malarkey...what do you need to take; where do you put it all?  where does your wife then rearrange it to so you can't find anything?

You may well have read an earlier post about our caravan etiquette we are developing as we start our touring. Part of this has been to have an agreed initial plan of where things go so that we BOTH know where to find things!! And so that whilst I am sorting out waste water, aqua roll and electric hook up, nothing in the interior gets reorganised so that I then spend the next several days trying to find things!!

So, this is our first draft. I am sure it will change with advice from yourselves and as we gain more experience
