I pay half that for a lift and antifoul (34 foot boat / hull and outdrives) just down the coast from you at Altea.

Yes, I think it's a bit high for 43ft sailing boat but.... I think I'm just going to go with it because I'm not there and they will handle the whole process and put her back in her berth when done. Will book it in for early new year.

It's often worth paying a premium to have people you trust take care of the whole job. Particularly when you're not present. That's the price we pay for med boating.
 
Just had a lovely meal of tapas and a walk on the beach

Due to my technical issues, this is my first winter not on the boat for 15 years….sad really
 
Today was lovely because this darn wind has finally died down

So it got me a wondering…..what if there was no wind….would that be marvellous ? Think, you could go boating every day and because there would be no more yachts, there will be plenty of places in the port…..
Just musing….now just where is my fuel leak coming from ??‍♂️?

And see an end to those blasted wind turbines stuck on the back of Raggies boats, why do I mention that, Steri-Strips applied to my bald head a month or so ago, but that's another story......:cool:

Yes, Bouba, I was on a friends F43, he lost use of an engine so he came in on one, I moved to STB quarter looking down with roaming fender and the blades sliced my head its still not fully healed - bled a lot, didn't hurt much, no sense, no feeling..!

Head wounds don’t hurt and bleed like hell. There is much to be feared on a sail boat !
