Moodysabre and White Magic are now in Shotley.

Saw Kudu leaving to take a cheap mooring for the night.

Marvellous sail up here - 30deg wind shifty whilst I was in the loo /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif Good job I had a gybe preventer on /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Catseven was watching me in the lock so I got him to jump aboard and help me refuel. I gave White Magic a hand too - so nioce to have an audience when you single hand into the lock /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Awaiting Beancounter then leaving first light tomorrow (Friday). Will be on pontoon duty at Ostend on Saturday afternoon.

Hope it stays like this- shorts on! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

That lock got me by surprise. I was expecting the water to go down first, but no, they open the gates and it drops like niagra. lol

the delta lloyd boats are up here. Some sort of party going on, but not for Nathans. I took the lovely walk to pin mill, only to find they had a problem with the card machine, so I coppered up for a single pint, then left. Good job really as I had to kayak back /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
 
Yes, we're heading that way too....

probably won't leave Oostende until Monday late morning though....

Heading for one of the uninhabited islands on the Veersemeer (Baastian de Langeplaat?), where we will just hide for a couple of days... and then Middelburg on the way back out....
