1991 that was a good year for us!

Because we purchased our first sailboat with a lid on it was a Swift 18. We were as green as grass and well wet behind the ears as far as sailboats were concerned...more used to sailing dinghys. This Video makes us laugh, we had just got it home and put the mast up as you do. Hope you find it of interest the boat was only 7 years old from new and we sailed her for the next 19 years. Just going through some old video footage thought we would share it.

I still find wash boards confusing I always get the chamfered bits in a complete twist!
