Summary- Year 2003 My labour of love did not conclude with Whimbrel's successful launching in
April'03. A number of teething problems kept me busy during the first season.
I decided to take her down to May'03- September- Falmouth and back -maiden voyage too far? October - March'04 - to sell or not to sell? -completion of cabin interior Year 2004 April - haul out, antifoul, touch up topsides, strengthen bow section, rebuild gearbox (completely knackered) May- July- week end & day trips only -meanwhile preparations afoot for new rig. One final photo session under gaff rig – see pics in photo session July -August- out with the gaff rig and in with the bermudan rig! September onwards- excellent day trips with new rig -exciting new boat. See photo section for sexy new bermudan rig! Year 2005 April- fit replacement high efficiency Variprop- excellent ! May- time to say farewell to Fox’s Marina and all my friends for the one way
