Here we go.......

Samaritan being relaunched on the 28th March marked the first steps of our journey to the Azores and back in June.

Next step was a quick trip to Plymouth the following week for some professional rigging checks and to pick up my new autopliot (the most important person on the boat.....).

Next stage will be to install the compulsory satellite phone and sort out my on board communications but first there’s the small matter of completing some home decorating to get the house ready for our family Easter holiday.
