Stingo, the sailmaker and some other photos

[Deleted member 478]

Repairing the spinnaker mid-Atlantic.

The thing ripped right across and then down to the clew on the blue side and about halfway down to the tack on the red side. It took five hours to sew and three rolls of almost useless spinnaker tape, which wouldn't stick properly.

Adding plankton too my hair do.

One of the fish we caught

Roast chicken & veg for dinner.

Goble on watch

Our best loaf of bread.

Stingo was always one for plenty of kit. His last boat was sunk by the CD collection. Only the advent of the MP3 player has allowed him to get afloat again.
