On the mooring

I've been rowing out at high tides this week getting all the gear aboard and ready to be stowed. Galley and cooking stuff, bedding, anchors, spare parts, bilge pumps, water bottles, compasses, harnesses, lifejackets, sails, fire fighting stuff, VHF, fenders, drogue, inflatable dinghy, battery, - and that's just the tip of the iceberg!!! For the final preparations it's now down to checking all the lists. Assembling 1st aid kit, tool kit, spare parts and making sure nothing gets forgotten.
