Hi guys,
Firstly I suppose we should introduce ourselves. Myself and my partner are currently in the process of purchasing a Westerley 33 Discus (from a fine gentleman on this form).
We began learning to sail a couple of years ago and have our day skipper, coastal and sailboat maintenance course planned in for next year. So we are trying to do it as properly as we can.
In the next couple of years (2022), We are looking at selling up from Jersey, and heading off to le harve and hitting the canals on the way to the Med. Then seeing where life takes us.
I have trolled websites and forums wondering what people are doing with BREXIT looming (or December 31st). Although there is a lot of discussion, there doesn't appear to be much in what people are doing now. Also, what the plans are for people with the 90 days and travelling etc etc.
A lot of people I understand get their boat stored and then return later on, however we are trying to focus on the liveaboards, sole 365 days a "yearers".
For the moment the plans still stands....... and probably will even if it sounds like its not going to work, it just needs to be researched as although the sailboat and packing up is very much in the process the starting detail of the trip is just at the beginning. Unfortunately this is one area I really need to swat up on, however i thought why not better than first off to post on here and see what we got back.
Nice to meet you all
