Back in the water last Monday. Radar fitted and under went sea trials to calibrate new navigation equipment. I have taken out the exhaust system for the diesel heater in order to measure and replace. So nights on board are a little chilly at present. Just an excuse to go to the pub in the evening to watch Chelsea beat PSG.

A few teething troubles with new equipment. A little juddering as the autopilot's hydraulic ram turns us hard to starboard. The wind and depth instruments are no longer displaying - probably a loose wire somewhere in the system. Something to sort out before Eurotek have the final bill paid.
