Vagrant has been playing on the beach off Instow since Friday. We left Dale at 2200 on Thursday so we could be at Bideford Bar two hours before high water - after HW would have been dangerous
We came here to see meet our friend Stu and his daughters. We had a good boat and beach day yesterday, then Sara and I went out for dinner, walking to and from the boat.
In each tide we're afloat for about 4 hours and on the beach for about 4 hours. This has allowed us to take our bikes to the supermarket, and do some boat maintenance (grease the propeller, having first figured out how to prime a grease gun). We've also realised that we really need to get some more bottom paint on. We're down to bare epoxy in a few places and being sand blasted twice a day isn't helping.
Brilliant photo - you need a map on the home page so that I don't have to keep looking you up n marine traffic :)
ReplyDeleteWe encourage such snooping. But I'll see whether I can figure out a tracking widget.
