On the boat this evening for our first bout of properly poor weather. 40-60mph wind until midnight, and it’s been, well… Bouncy!

Dogs are a little perturbed, but all is well.

The big news is the deposit just paid for Acceptance of Cowes, a 36 ft Westerly Corsair which I fell in love with on Saturday just gone. Mostly it has to be acknowledged because I can stand up full height in the main cabin, for those of you of average height, I’m not sure there is a way of relaying the joy when you find that you fit something! 

See, look at my similing face!!
