Thanks for these SL - certainly most helpful for ideas etc. I have recently started to watch Ran and found ideas on cockpit tent replacement useful. I particularly thought the concept of expanding at sides with some form of stanchion uplift was interesting. I’m sure many others out there offer different lessons but for practical tasks for a typical cruising sized boat it’s well worth following.

Probably the most beautifully filmed! A Geordie in Australia who bought a wooden boat in Canada and sailed her back to Australia and now he lives aboard alone after First Mate went her own way... These are mostly short vids and it is well worth watching from the beginning.

Why, is this a private thread? :rolleyes:
Really? Why don't you read what you quoted LOL Now read it and understand it in context please.

Now you know why I discouraged our honourable members from discussing fake news and conjecture.

You have contributed nothing to this thread other than to ask a question whose answer should be obvious to even the most bored and depressed of lockdowned sailors. Be well my friend, I look forward to your cheery contribution somewhere on this forum.

Survival mode! They have bought a lot of beer. Unlike many boats this crew is floating free (or as free as you can get for the moment).

Sailing Fair Isle lockdown part 2. What is interesting is they were lucky enough (or unlucky depending on your POV) to be locked down at anchor in one of the Meds very few all weather anchorages (I have heard it is all weather - but it would be interesting to hear comments on Mar Menor's all weather safety).

Thinking about it - I would say they were in the right place at the right time! Just like good journalists are trained to do. Old habits die hard lol.
