Summer Evening Sail to Yealm - Colvic 26
Просмотров 5004 года назад
A glorious summer afternoon meant that we took Emerald Sprit out of her new marina Berth and spent some time pottering about, enjoying that it doesn't get dark even at 23.00! First we had a quick test sail of the new secondhand Genoa and Tillerpilot. Then we anchored at the entrance of the Yealm and had a delicious risotto before going up river to explore. Finally all that was left was to enjoy...
A Windy Day Sail along the Cornish Coast Colvic 26
Просмотров 2,6 тыс.4 года назад
A wet, windy and exciting day sail along the Cornish Coast aboard Emerald Sprit. With the wind gusting to Force 6, Emerald Sprit powered through the waves and achieved a constant 6 knots at times! Sheet to tiller steering was also set up with some success. A rip in the headsail meant I motor sailed back.
Evening Sail around Plymouth Breakwater aboard Emerald Sprit
Просмотров 1404 года назад
Evening Sail around Plymouth Breakwater after scrubbing the hull a few days previous and doing a few tweaks to the rig. Pleased with the results and I'm now eagerly watching government advice so that Emerald Sprit and I can venture further afield to the Scillies or Channel Islands.
Maggie's first day at Sea aboard Emerald Sprit Colvic 26
Просмотров 1444 года назад
Pictures from the return leg of our short outing to Cawsands from Cargreen on the 24th May. We spent all day at anchor, enjoying the Bank Holiday sunshine and the luxury of our newly installed oven and repaired electric system. We motored all the time so that Maggie would learn to be relaxed, and we were rewarded by her doing all her toilets trips on our patch of artificial grass!
Day Sail to Eddystone from Cargreen
Просмотров 2734 года назад
First outing under sail with my Colvic Sailor 26 'Emerald Sprit'. Passage was Cargreen to Eddystone Light and back. Roughly 40Nm in total. Wind was varied from Force 2 to Force 5. In the video I experiment with some sheet-to-tiller self steering. The average speed for the whole day including the motor down and up the Tamar was 3.9 knots. Considering I was punching a neap tide both ways, I'm ver...

International Steam Festival at Swiss Vapeur Parc 2015
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.9 лет назад
Here is the last weekend of the 10-day-long international steam festival at le Bouvret. Here, N°88 puts in another great performance, despite numerous butch on-the-job repairs. She struggled up the incline on a few occasions, but after a day of practice, we finally got here charging up without slipage. This could well be the last time I visit before a new planned extension, which will make the ...

    I have a 1980 Colvic 26 based out of Brightlingsea on the East Coast. They are cracking little cruisers as your video shows!

      Thanks for the heads-up. Not brilliantly to be honest- though my means of measurements are non-existent. I’ve bought a wind speed meter so will be installing that when lockdown ends... I think the main cause other than the vertical keels is the undersize main but it doesn’t really bother me as she’s a shoestring cruiser at the end of the day? The engine is more than powerful to help when beating to windward!
