Not sure I can do a lot about that right now lol!

Nor can Argentina . . . .

Great responses! I really like the Hallberg Rassy boats, that is the plan one day!

Once the spring comes round I'll be looking at some more sailing trips!

If you are considering B&O onboard, my advice is to keep it simple. We've had a Beosound 1 but the saline air, or marezia will corrode the CD player rather quickly.  Today we bring a Beosound 3 with a bag of SD cards of music in the duffel with us. More than enough sound to go around for everyone.

 

Agreed.  This is why we would limit it to BeoLab 4 and Playmaker.  BeoSound 5 is also under consideration.  I wonder how long will it live before its electronics die.

 

We raced against a MacGregor 65 recently.  It's an impressive vessel.

i have been dingly sailing and a little big boat stuff for 30 odd years, Enterprise nationals done about 15 times, finished 9th this year in Tenby, done the round the island race a few times...

still sailing now....just not as often and not in the winter anymore !

Good Show Andy !

 

I really like your avatar.

Winter sailing is best complimented by Musto, layering, a hot shower, and Glenlivet.

We're lucky that we get to sail and kayak year-round. A nice winter's day the temperature will reach 20 degrees Celcius although the water will be too cold to swim (for me anyway).

B&O stays away from the water though!
