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

I voted for brexit, on the basis that the EU in all its living days, have never had their books audited.
It's not about being European - I am - it's the politics.
Europe is in at least, as big a mess and politicians of all persuasions, have only poured fuel on the fires of division.
Enjoyed the sail.
Kind regards
Neil

From Fintan O'Tooles Brexit book an old Turkish proverb says that an Englishman will set fire to his bed to kill a flea.

Hi Neil - I voted remain but fully understand why people voted BREXIT - the EU is in a complete mess and auditing is just one of the issues - but I sort of thought it was better to be in and throw our weight around a little better to get reform - including withholding contributions and to work with other countries who felt the same way. The EU needs reform and the new leaders of it know that.
Like the proverb - I'm welsh - we'd make friends with the flea!
