Last week's trip in a Bavaria 36, from Cardiff to the River Crouch, 500 nm of great sailing and scenery, including the barrage at Cardiff, fast tides in the Bristol Channel, Lands End, Penzance, St Michael's Mount, Falmouth, Eddystone Lighthouse, St Catherine's Point Isle of Wight and Beachy Head.
Great boat, passage and crew.🌬⛵😎🌊

Drying marina to drying entrance…A technically varied delivery of a beautifully maintained Delphia 29 (lift keel version), from Smallgains Marina, Canvey Island -prior home of Prout Catamarans- to Tidemill Yacht Harbour, Woodbridge, River Deben, passing Southend’s Mulberry Harbour, sunk in the lead up to D Day.
If you’ve never sailed one, these boats are great, packing in more accommodation than you’d expect in a 29’ boat, with equally good performance; it felt more like a 34 footer!

Another Gemini 105MC multihull, another French Port, this time setting sail at night, from Grimsby docks to Calais Marina. A varied passage, weather wise and navigationally, with numerous Traffic Separation Schemes en route and tidal gates. Great fun with the owners and extra crew 🦮🐈‍⬛ and an interesting display of early cross channel planes (Louis Bleriot). Concluding with the ferry trip back to Dover and Diving Seagulls!

Some photos of a recent delivery from Cowes, Isle of Wight to Cherbourg, Cotentin, France. The Gemini makes a fast, comfortable cruising platform. Passage time of just under 12 hours and very busy shipping lanes! Very helpful staff at Chantereyne Marina😀

3 Rivers, 300 miles, 1 Newbridge Pioneer: Blackwater to the Yealm, via the Medina. Some pictures of a recent delivery from Blackwater Marina, to Bridgend Quay, Newton Ferrers, Plymouth. A split in the fuel pump diaphragm required a stop on the River Medina, Isle of Wight, so we could replace with a nice new shiny one.

Preparing a boat for delivery to Plymouth and thought a service prudent….which it was😮See the ‘Before, During and After’ pics! Probably the worst example I’ve seen.
Running much more sweetly now 😀
