Robinetta, There and Back Again, the 2013 log

Robinetta, #2

This is the story of a year in the life of a small old wooden gaff rigged sailing yacht. It contains details of the maintance needed to keep a 76 year old boat going, as well as what can do wrong over the course of a season, with both boat and crew. We have owned Robinetta since 2007, and this is the year when things went wrong, as we went on our most ambitious cruise to date, from the river Blackwater in Essex, round to Cowes, and back.
