    Thought I'd share my other hobby that keeps me sane ....
    We have a Heard Mevagissey Tosher (20ft) that we've done a lot of work on ..... the art of varnishing was the steep learning curve here.
    With five sails to contend with she keeps us fit![​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
    Any other sailors out there?

      What a fabulous job you've made of that! Beautiful :dbgrtmb: Quite often fancied a go at sailing, just too hazardous.

        Kayaks are great fun and get you to places you can't get in larger boats... until recently we had a canadian canoe that we used to paddle into all sorts of creeks and rivers so totally envy you there :)

            Hello Sailor! It's a wonderful looking job there, you must be proud. I'm no sailor but I love watching them when we pop down to the Solent.
