Bob is currently in Eyemouth, just over the border in Scotland. She will be taken out of the water in late August and is due to have her engine refurbished. While the engine is out, Katie and I will be giving her oily insides a thorough clean.

I have been befriended by a group of absolutely delightful young (for 80) Eyemouth men who are keeping an eye on her and have kindly taken my sails, outboard, soft-furnishings etc into their waterside man-space for the winter.
