After three fab weekends despite the traumas of last weekend, the season is winding down. I have been on call most of the week, so swailing plans for this weekend were for today only as in work all of yesterday.
Weather was gorgeous yesterday from what I saw along the corridors of the NHS, today is a different story .....torrential rain, lashing down. Grumpy and tired chops is giving swailing a wide berth. It would be no fun even in wet weather gear.
Das captain has been on a tarpaulin shop by the looks of things for wrapping her up for winter. We may get a good winter deal to keep her in...that would be good but nothing is coming up trumps so far.
We,re hoping we can get a good weather window for next weekend so ELG can get a final swail with us this year, we know post that the chances will be slim and she is due out towards mid October.
Worst season on record, although we have had fun....not many projects for the winter other than the standard bot maintenance plus refurbishing the floor boards, which will make her look more spanking than ever. Plus....not long til the Vendee Globe which we are both mega excited about. Let's hope Brittany Ferries sort their strike action out by then which is going on at the mo....the curse if the Roffeeeees strikes again!
