There isn’t much to add – except that the party was wonderful, and our thanks go to Ivor, the owner of the flagpole!

A summary of how boats rot and what you could do about it (in the past)
This chapter is from quite a time before epoxy, polyurethane and the rest, of course – but it’s still what nightmares are made of.
Whenever I read it, I can’t help thinking one should really take the somewhat tactless step of examining every plank of a boat before setting out, even just across the bay…
Here’s a new thing to practice…
Well it’s new to me. This is Florida, but I predict it’ll catch on here too. I can just imagine people in marinas and docksides across the country quietly practising the gentle art of mooring line whanging… Can you do it?
Thanks to Facebook’s Lew Clayman for the link!
