I'm yet again in what feels like the rather implausible position of foredecker on this sleek beauty. And no, we don't have anything as modern as wire safety lines.
I say implausible as it's not a place I'd previously spent much time and there is a certain expectation of performance after last years good result - but as we all know that means nothing. So I better not let that spinnaker wrap, twist, tear, go fishing or any of the many other things that can go wrong.
And alas a whole year has passed since was afloat so more than a little rusty. Fingers etc crossed and will be muttering the sailors prayer. What's more the forecast is for light winds and we want a bit of a blow - gloom :(
Now must head out to Fowey for drinks and dinner, but more later.
