Conyer Creek

The club rally to Benfleet was cancelled. Various reasons circulated; not enough water, behavior of the club members last year, they were busy launching. This worked out to our benefit, we went to Swale Marina in Conyer Creek instead. It was tight getting in on the high tide and at low water everyone dries out.


The sail home was excellent, after we made it back into the Medway against the tide.

New (Old) Sails

So he does still love me ❤

He bagged a couple of sails and the fit like they were made for me.

The spinnaker came from Ebay and was flown without a pole. It pulled nicely.

 The jib came from an auction at the boat club. Very tired but a good fit and hank on so an ideal compliment to the furler for down wind sailing.

Also, engine fuel leak fixed and a couple of practice runs at mooring on the trot so a jolly good weekend.
