Charisma Sadler 32BK

[benw]

Well that's the season over. A weekend of off loading all of the bits and pieces accumulated over the season done last week. Sod's law that the weather was majestic for October sailing - decision to sell has taken priority.
A lift and pressure wash and she is now sat outside Clipper brokerage Woolverstone having had a great season.
Two north sea trips, one including 9hrs shrouded in fog, 3wks summer cruise up and into the Netherlands, an interesting 40kn blow out of the Blackwater and some great local trips including Wrabness BBQ's and a few trips up to Ipswich Haven and down to SYH.
Now we are looking to grow a few feet so until we get a deal we can seriously accept it's only memories for us for the time being. The only bonus being wallet slightly less bashed as not making the 2hr trip £80 round trips!
Wishing all a great end to the season and happy sailing.

Wallet bashing?

Thats wind over tide in a F6. So where does the £80 come into it?


best of luck with the sale and purchase!

Well, if you get bored, you could always travel 3 or 4 miles south down the A15, and give me a hand varnishing all my removed doors and lockers!

Very good chaps - ECF humour at its best.
3 miles south along A15 makes Langtoft or Deeping - correct?

Deeping it is... There's one other forumite in Baston by the way, as well as a couple of RYA national racing squad members that i'm aware of... A veritable hotbed of nautical residents for such an inland location!

 

[benw]

Indeed it is, BastonJock lives not more than 500m away!
This fine assortment of sea dogs may be to do with our proximity to the Wash floodplain, we're ready for anything in Baston! Pity our boats are some 2 hrs drive away. Well except Baston Jock who I believe has his in his back garden.

Is this the same Charisma that I used to see up by Deacons boat yard on the Hamble? we were in a boat share in a Sadler 32. Great boat!

 

[benw]

Don't think so. Our Charisma was first launched in the Blackwater and last owner kept her at Orford. She is a lovely yacht and has certainly looked after us well.
