After storm Eunice the continuing bad weather has hampered work on the boat. So we have made use of the time with some more detailed planning. We have two strategic “must arrive” destinations on the trip. These are to facilitate medical treatments which Lou has arranged to be done on the boat. The first will be at Mallaig in Scotland late June, and the second in Padstow, mid August. The Harbour Masters have been contacted and both have agreed to arrange space for our arrival.
We have a freezer compartment on the boat and have over the years developed a number of recipes that get vacuum packed and frozen. Lou has been busy batch cooking to build up a stock. We will have to rely on our visiting crews to bring some with them as we can only carry about 12 meals at a time.
The drive leg has been gathering dust in the garage since it was refurbished back in October. So when a warmish Sunny day came along last week, it was time to reattach. A couple of hours work and the job was pretty much done. Just a couple of minor of snags to finish it off.

Lastly the WKPA boat stickers have arrived but the boat needs a polish before we stick them on. However I couldn’t resist seeing what they would look like.
