Exeter living magazine, a quick dit about sailing!

A few weeks ago I received a tweet from Exeter Living Magazine asking if I would like to contribute to their latest issue about the sailing/boating scene on the Exe. I was asked to provide a few words describing a memorable moment of sailing on the estuary.

So I put a quick dit together about my first trip on DY171 and her delivery from Starcross to Topsham via her little 2.5 hp engine. 

The issue has just been published…...



If you would like to have a read of the article click on the image of the issue above and go to page 26

I didn't choose my most glorious moment, but it was certainly memorable!

Happy Sailing

Making the most of May sunshine and wind

We have just got back from a great sail on the Exe, all new bits and bobs seem to be working as intended. We sailed from Topsham to Exmouth beach stopping briefly at Starcross YC for some lunch on the way back. 

On our way down river we caught the Merlin Rockets sailing from Starcross at their open meeting, perfect weather for such an event, force 4 and beautiful sunshine (is this really the UK).


 

Happy Sailing,
Rich
