Well another year and another trip to the slips. New folding propeller being fitted today. Hope to see an improvement in light weather sailing.
Cheers,
Mark

G'day Michael,
Thanks, I think polishing the topsides lifted the old girl's spirits considerably. As to the toe rails - I sanded them back last year - alas they are due for replacement and as this is going to be expensive it will have to wait a year or so (until I can convince the Chancellor of the Exchequer that it would be a good investment to spend even more money on the boat).
Sorry you are unable to make the Rumb Line Race on the 5th, it looks like being a lot of fun. I am surprised Denis had not had more interest.
Cheers,
Mark
