    Jeff Martin was an amazing Laser racer to be sure. Your memorial episode was highly respectful of his family and memory. May Neptune give you safe passage all your days.

      Angie is so lovely! We can’t wait to see her again after lockdown. Jeff’s death was just tragic

    Superb choice of music. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of splashing one’s boat the first time; especially with the added poignancy of its story. I’ve seen so many boats launched at Mylor but this is the first time I’ve known the background. Special thanks to Mrs Martin for her generosity; it must be good to see Miss Rosie in such loving hands.

      Thanks Mike! Yes Angie was so lovely and generous. We’re glad to have been able to get Miss Rosie back afloat and working :)

    Well done guys! Nice tribute to the previous owner who I could only imagine would also have been proud of your work and the way you have documented it.

      Were very pleased with her. We still have her on a mooring by our house so we’ll be sailing Miss Rosie until Melody is ready to launch.

    what a great job you've done in getting Miss Rosie looking ship shape again. I'm sure there's lots more to do but great to see her back where she belongs!

      Thanks. Yes there’s lots more to do and this winter we’ll be hauling her out for some more woodwork, upholstery and perhaps even new standing rigging. We’ll see. Got other project on the go as well. The next few episodes detail our journey from Falmouth to Pwllheli

      @@SailingMelody I look forward to seeing the progress. Falmouth to Pwllheli is quite a trip. I just sailed back from L'Aber-Ildut to Plymouth single handed, took me 28 hours. It was foggy most of the way which made it quite "interesting". Thank god for AIS!

      Sailing Moon Shadow we have no AIS on Miss Rosie but we do have radar.
      Can’t afford AIS currently

      @@SailingMelody I only have receive function which built in to my Standard Horizon VHF but is sure was an enormous help. Twice I passed within 0.3 of a nautical mile of a fishing boat but, due to the AIS giving me the boat details I was able to call them on the radio to make sure they knew I was there. In the fog that was still pretty nerve wracking. Luckily those guys are ablaze with lights.

    Fixing to buy a 1970 Great Dane that was sailed from Norway 🇳🇴 and the couple that had beer on the boat with their 2 kids were forced to leave the boat in Florida because of Covid and couldn’t return to get the boat sad for them but I’m super stocked on this solid built boat
