Erbas has now been sold and we've moved onwards and upwards to a Westerly 33 ketch we've renamed "Pagan"

A Summer Weekend - Day 1

Y'know, it's really hard trying to think up snappy, witty titles for these posts. As you can no doubt tell, I gave up on it this time!

It was the usual turgid Friday afternoon drive down however the compensation was arriving at Fambridge on a gorgeous warm summer's evening

Rowing out to Erbas on her mooring was easy, so unlike the last occasion and she was soon alongside the pontoon

I'm curious, to say the least, as to what is eating power as she was down to -65A on the monitor. That's a fair bit in barely three weeks. It's going to need investigation.

It didn't take long to pop our bags aboard, make up the bed and sort everything out and we were pub bound by seven. A decent meal and a few drinks were followed by a fairly early night for Jane and I won't be far behind

Tomorrow we're off to Bradwell. With an afternoon high tide there's no great rush to get away in the morning. The weather forecast isn't bad either. F3 or 4 from the North East isn't ideal but it'll go

    1. Yeah but, yeah but - it's only one LED (on the bilge pump switch).
