Dover boatyard 51: 7.07N 1:18.53E

30 days until our planned departure for the 2012 Round Britain Jolly.

Life has been too chaotic (no change there then) so the Benjamins are, as ever, behind time.

Cate, Leigh and I watched Vega lifted out onto the hard in Dover last Monday, and I spent a day scraping barnacles off the saildrive in a cold breeze yesterday, and bought the antifoul for next week’s rubbing and painting.  A lot to do, and our lives seem to be busier than ever.  I have however at least worked out a proposed passage plan for the whole trip (I know, 'the best laid schemes o’ mice and men' etc) using PCPlanner and C-Map cartridges (which I need have updated before we go  – note to self).

Onwards and upwards!
