Camper & Nicholson certainly designed some lovely boats, but every boat is a compromise - and to gain comfortable sailing we lose accommodation. Its really amazes us when we go inside a modern 35 footer and see just how much space they have.
@@tarbertsailing tell me about it! Chartered a 35 foot boat in Croatia last summer and really didn’t feel cramped with us and our three teenage daughters. Wouldn’t have the same feeling in my 1980’s 36 footer that I have here in Norway🙈
Safe and sound again! I quite understand your concern when she is being lifted....I used to insist on standing under mine when she was lifted. The crane op would say you can't stand there but I would reply yes, I must! Made me feel better, and for sure made him a bit more careful!! Wishing you fair winds, smooth seas, and lots more U Tube episodes. Jon
Always a bit tentative doing the antifouling under the boat when she is in the slings, but know what you mean about wanting the crane driver to take care. We are lucky with Sandy, and he does a great job. Thanks for the good wishes - here's hoping for this season, although we'll get what we get and make the most of it!
It's fine to trust the lift operator. Good to know you absolutely trusted the sling conditions and positions. Astonished the driver or bank didn't give you a well-deserved clip or walk off, which they should have.
@@smokingkippers1173 if the driver felt that a clip was well deserved, I'm sure he would have given one. Having kept the boat in a number of yards, I have never come across anyone who is unhappy with the risk associated with antifouling the underside of a keel. After all, how else are you supposed to do it? Each to their own I suppose.

Loving all your trips and the information that you have on where you visit. Looking forward to more.
Thanks. Yes, more to come. We have just been busy sailing :)
Always dry throat when your boat is swinging like that 👍
Yep - not allowed to ride in the boat anymore! Health and safety, although I was never that keen anyway.
Such a beautiful boat - they just don’t make them with such stunning lines anymore. Fair winds those season☺️
