#uksailing

With seemingly 101 jobs still to do before setting sail, it felt productive to finally construct the box to carry the VHF fixed set and Navigation light switch. I’ve started the first layers of fibreglass and resin. Hopefully next weekend when I finish work, I can hopefully get somewhere near completing this all important unit.... Salt water is the enemy of electronics so I’m going for belt and braces where I can to limit the corrosion when at sea. #sailingdinghy #wayfarersailing #woodenboat #woodenboatsarebetter #woodenboats #dinghysailing #dinghy #dinghycruise #dinghycruisingassociation #dinghylife #uksailing #dinghyadventures #adventure #adventuresailing

Any day on the water is a good day, particularly on board an Oyster yacht. Here’s a few of my images gracing the pages of the current edition of Oyster Life Magazine, shot at Wroxham before the sun turned into rain.

An old photograph of how she used to look and still appears in the Westerly Owners Manual. #westerly #cirrus #uksailing #sailing #saillife https://www.instagram.com/p/ByfogAWFL3i/?igshid=1f5m180k43e4l

As she didnt come with a fuel guage or method of knowing how much fuel she has in her, I created one. 1. Syphon tank of all fuel, 2. Refill 1ltr at a time, dip and mark on a dowel, 3. Transfer measurements (including Gallons) to a material of choice ie: something long lasting. Simple. I will be making a device similar to the theory of a mercury thermometer. When I place the rod in, an item on the rod stays afloat on the top of the fuel level. #westerly #cirrus #uksailing #sailing #reburbishment #sailingdiy #saillife #oceanpilgrims (at Portishead Quays Marina) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByfoMOPl6Bz/?igshid=3tn08suyc2yv
