A very, very grey day out on the Sound

 Two thermal tops - one long sleeve, the other short sleeved. One fleece pullover; one gilet and one fleece lined windproof  jacket. Rohan walking trousers underneath Musto sallies. Thick waterproof sealskinz socks and dinghy wellies. A fleece lined thermal beanie.

And I still felt COLD!!

These 'working back up to overnighting' cruises continue despite the cold but I reckon I'm getting a real old wussie! Add that to the list that includes the dodgy prostate, the collapsing oesophagus and the waning memory........ 😂

  1. Steve, great to see you and ARWEN back out on the water. I love winter sailing. A little jealous here as I haven't sailed since early January, have SPARTINA home for some maintenance. Should be back on the water in a couple weeks. Thanks always for the excellent videos. Steve

  2. Hello Steve - how are you? Hope you and family are all safe and well. Like SPARTINA, Arwen is off the water for the next few weeks whilst the trailer is hopefully finally sorted. But, as soon as that is done, I am hoping to do a couple of 'end of winter' camp sessions - one or two up the Tamar river at favourite spots and then possibly one along the coast to a sheltered cove I know.
    Looking forward to seeing you back on the water as soon as possible. As always, thank you for all the inspiration you give us
