Heres a little look at my new boat. I'll be back aboard soon and will do a more in-depth video showing the construction etc.

Hi John.
Thanks a lot! Thats a really nice gesture. I'll be back in about 2 weeks and staying to late December. I have a heap of work to do to get the new boat ready for next season.
I'm having the rigging changed.
I'll change out in interior a little to make her more comfortable, increase storage.
I need to find a tender and outboard.
I have racing sails to try and sell
new anchor chain.
more solar
install AIS
buy tools and spares
lift out and antifoul
engine service
and the list goes on.

I'll also be wanting to sail as often as possible to get a handle on her as she's a very different beast to my last one.

I would love to come out on your boat, I'll give you a call in advance.

Vernon,
Seems that video clips are the new blog!

I, as a non expert, need help to make videos, hopefully, eventually, somewhat near your quality.

Could you make a clip showing what gear to use, as at a least cost, but minimum required quality,
and the best to use along with some simple tips to get us going?

Phillip

PS Love your stuff and I'm working through the sailing clips
