Kate must go, she's 17'3" long and sits on a trailer with new bearings and one new tyre. She recently travelled to Beaulieu and back where lots of people admired her but no-one bought her.
Before going to Beaulieu she got a nice new blue coat on her topsides, some antifouling on her bum and a white stripe in between. We bought her in a proper state and cleaned her up lovely and I have learnt an awful lot about boat maintenance and repair. We have also learnt about sailing and, quite importantly, when not to sail. A boat that small teaches you a lot of respect for the sea and weather.
It is also a huge amount of fun.
