Well Cervinia is back in the water, we spent today putting on the sails and checking the systems over.
So tomorrow is the big day, from Mersea to Bradwell, if the forecast is to be believed should be perfect for our first day back on a boat with sails, dont think we will be taking the direct route...... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
So if you see a blue boat stranded in the middle of the Blackwater you know we have got it wrong.

Lots still to do, at least its things that I can do (electrics and plumbing) and dont have to pay someone else.
 
I'm out for a sail tomorrow so will keep an eye open for you. A SW breeze isn't ideal for you but it's an excuse to sail a bit further getting there /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I know what a Snappy looks like cos I used to have one - I've got a ***** called *****. Weird but true. Have a good day.
 
Nice to meet you Julian - Cervinia looked very nice. A perfect day for a maiden trip.

A good forumite day - out sailing with Opsguy, chatting to morgandlm and with the intrepid CPD - very nice boat matey. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
 
Indeed good to meet you both.
Having to get used to not having the facilities that we have on Parglena but its fun.
Couldnt have wished for a better day for a maiden voyage not so much wind tomorrow but Wednesday looks promising.
I was surprised just how forgiving the snappie is for people like us that are not sure what we are doing.
