Last orders...

This weekend sees us packing more stuff away for the boat and still shopping for those must haves.

Also this weekend we helped Jonny and Kate with a few jobs on their boat, as they are hoping to have their boat back on the water before this weekend. It was good to be around the boat yard and a reminder of things to come.

We are now making good progress on clearing things down, it has taken an entire day just going through paper work and assessing what we must keep and what we don’t need anymore, the amount of documentation we do not need anymore was by far and away the biggest pile.

A decision was finally made on the radar, we have decided that it will be worth while having, along with the chart plotter, gps (another one) plus digital charts and the mast mount for the radar. These have now been ordered and I just hope it arrives in time and we can fit it all into the van for our journey to La Rochelle in just over a weeks time. Not long now!

Another plan is to have a final leaving party on Friday or Saturday night, giving us plenty of time to recover before the serious side to our adventure begins.
