a few plastic boats at Hayling Yacht Co

I must say that it is one of the most interesting yards of the journey so far

The big cat looks like an Eric LeRouge. They go like stuff of a shovel..

it is a blooming monster - about the size of a tennis court

I am amazed that some-one is paying for the space in the yard for it

Yes she does look very sad.. perhaps the owner should be reported to the RSPCA?

From a comment else where - That’s a very smart looking Centaur in the last three pictures!

thats alright

it is a long story

but she has a pretty good Volvo 2002 inboard - maybe 20 years old

and it is too good to remove

so I have put a bracket on the back and will be taking the Tohatsu along for the ride just in case

the prebious owner had some health problems and was never going to get the boat ready for crane in day on March 17th

I got the boat for the price of a wreck on the basis that the previous owner will get more money when the boat is sold next year

there were some bills owing on her, through hulls shot, keels v rusty, electrics in need of some work, sails a bit tatty, usual stuff

time consuming

She is now in Chichester Harbour at the Hayling Yacht Co pontoons. At the end of May three of us will sail her straight to Scotland - no stopping

The second one (bubble cat) is Dazcat Cloud 9. Used to be on a mooring near me at Hythe SC - it may still be there, but I'm not!

If you are every back in the muddy part of the world... You will be welcome to come aboard Tomahawk...

It is a different concept of sailing when you are as wode as an Anderson is long....
