12 July: General clean, fenders, fridge etc.

 

13 July: Drilled out bolts access holes with hole saw in marine ply behind aft bedhead for davit line electric winches, which had previously been roughed out with small drill holes and hacksaw. Cleaned leather upholstery in saloon. Vacuumed and cleaned floors. Updated blog. Arnold Greenhalgh, father of son-in-law Jack (married to daughter Catherine), arrived about 2145hrs and after settling in we went for a beer and a chat.

 

14 July: Arnold and I went for breakfast, got supplies and then prepared the boat for departure. Fortunately no crossed anchor chains this time so straight forward departure at 11am. Arnold took the helm and I cleared fenders, raised dinghy and then set the sails. Nice reaching conditions in 15knts wind, 6.7kns SOG. Making for Lopud.
