Well, nearly ready. At least I am. Gail has not really started yet, although we did buy a few things from Waitrose including the boxes of wine.

The electricians finished today, with everything up and running including AIS, battery monitor and three brand new absobed glass mat batteries. Many thanks to the two Marks from Seacraft Marine.

The cockpit locker is packed and pretty chocker. My bed is already made so all I need now is a few clothes and Gail.

With the wind from the North East , we are now planning to slip from Poole at 06.00 on Sunday. Wind a bit strong, force 6 forecast, for the first day, but more wind due Tuesday and Wenesday, and we would like to be tied up safely before it arrives. Tomorrow, Saturday might have been good, but we are not quite ready, and Gail has organised a farewell BBQ with her sister and Ollie and their families.
