Beautiful Sunset


Gorgeous sunset photo taken through Faraways cockpit. Great stuff and we haven't even sailed anywhere yet!

Ian Sundowners


OMG Ian seriously has had a few before taking this sunset photo! It gets better though.

Sundowners at Chichester

My kind of Sundowners. Now Ian is getting with the real program!

The State Room

Ian took time out shopping for the new bedding for Faraway. Pretty flashy design which looks a bit like big surfboards!

Test

Test message from my hotmail/iPhone. If this works Ian should be a piece of cake on the HF. Copy?

'Puffin'


Puffin being hoisted. With a bit of a scrub she will look like brand new. Thanks in advance Ian for volunteering.

Inflatable Dinghy


How cool Ian managed to inflate the dinghy with his own lung power. Pretty amazing feat really. I think this dinghy is a winner! She is suitably named from this day forward as the 'Puffin'.

Sundowners at Chichester


Beautiful sunset at Chichester Marina while Ian relaxed with a cup tea. Pretty sad really if I was there it would have been rounds of G & T's. Anyway he needs to keep a clear head while outfitting Faraway for her big adventure. Spot the scary owl on the mast to keep the birds off. Ian said it seems to be working pretty well so that will save him some deck scrubbing.




Baby Swans


Ian is back in Chichester visiting Faraway. The swan we got to know so well on our last visit now has babies. I think they are called signets but I'll have to check that out on the internet. Kind of ugly ducklings in a way but they will grow up to be gorgeous.
