I did my lone sailor bit today for about 30 mins,then had to give up,as I could no longer feel my fingertips. It was a ruddy cold wind today,not particularly strong,but cold. Having said that,I had fun just blasting the Midas around the pond at whatever speed I chose. The water was a little choppy,but nothing to write home about,even driving the boat at full chat into the wind,with water splashing over the foredeck,no water got into the boat. For a second level seal ,other than just the extended sides of the main hull opening,there is a liberal smearing of that old favourite.....Vaseline.
It was however just too cold to do any filming today,though I did snap off a few pics. Just how did I manage to get to the pond today I hear you ask. Well it was quite simple,SWMBO and the kids went up to see her mum this afternoon,and I took the oportunity to nip down to the park whilst they were there.
A few pics from today,trying to show the only two deck crew that i have just now.
