New Main Arriving

Jeckells contacted me yesterday and after forking out six hundred odd quid of outstanding balance they are shipping our new main out and it should arrive at work tomorrow.

We shall of course expect the boat to point five degrees higher or sail half a knot faster. The reality is more likely that she will point one degree higher and at least be able to power through a nasty chop with more aplomb than at present. It would be great to be able to try it out but the weather is really not looking promising for Christmas at all as the snow falls outside.

Oh well, all the more reason to sail south.
