whitepointer 20 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Pretty gusty up top of bonnacord today, had to move early after close encounters with a flybridge launch after the easterly chg, we had been in same spot 2 days and launch came in late and anchored close, kept a close watch from 4am till 6 then moved, hard to relax when they are swinging to within 10mtrs of us Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 1,207 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Cruising introduces some important decisions. This morning, get in the water and clean the bottom or go sailing? 5 mins ago, put spinnaker up or keep listening to Phantom and eat more banana cake?. The photo answers the questions.
