lifejackets

Replacement lifejacket arming kits arrived and fitted OK... so thats one less task to worry about.... also replacement cap for the shroud cover that caused so much trouble a fortnight ago has arrived.... it looks very small... I'm not sure i've ordered the right size!Passage planning all done for next weekend.... waypoints added to plotter and handheld...Forecast is looking interesting..... F3 and 23 degrees... a bit of a risk of the wind being a South Easterly though, which will mean motor sailing I suspect.... better make sure the tank is full!Plans are to leave Oostende on Monday, and head towards Gravelines... meant to be very pleasant, but dries out... apparently the mud is so soft that boats just sit in it up to the boot topping!And then, we'll make it up as we go along... perhaps a hop across to Ramsgate, and a slow run back via the Medway or similar... who knows!
