... Thin Water Annie: ROB Day 3
http://thinwaterannie.blogspot.com/2011/05/rob-day-3.html
Since 1978 I have been fortunate to sail wooden boats. In 2006 I set out to find a Drascombe Longboat Cruiser for single-handed. This is the continuing story of how it came to be, our adventures, notes on the maritime world and other things I don't want to forget. Sunday, May 22, 2011. Needed to catch them on the port quarter and I just held on. Tiller tamed with bungees. Feral horses on the Shackleford Banks. They didn't mind my company. Hot food for a hungry guy.

Seahopper: Aura (home page). Drascombe Coaster: Daisy II. Sunday, 5 July 2015. Seahopper action or inaction: there being little wind, oars were often necessary. Engine woes on my other boat kept me inland and prompted a much delayed maiden voyage in my yet to be named Nifty Fifty Seahopper. A Sunday morning trip to Rutland Water was the outcome. The slipway at the Watersports Centre, Whitwell Creek. I was too busy working on a routine during the sailing to catch any action shots, but did manage this smal...
