Right, to some of the more experienced here (think that's most of you /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif ) provisioning a boat is something you do without thinking about it. To me, never having done it, I wouldn't have a clue where to start /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
Sixpence doesn't have a fresh water tank so I've been stock piling plastic bottles for fresh water. First trip is going to be a shake down in the relative shelter of the Wash, whilst heading for Wells or Heacham for a final check of everything before heading South. The next leg may well be a night passage to put some miles behind, so I'll be at sea for a good few hours by the time we make the next landfall if we stick to that. But I have no idea how much water I'm likely to need. Not keen on heading in just because I can't have any more tea or coffee, and yes I know everyone is different, but any rough idea of how much water to load would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
