How were we going to get there? “Oh, we’ll just jump in and sail down”. Not happening according to Hopper’s dad and owner of the boat. There’s too many sand bars (see picture) and at the moment we don’t even own sailing charts.
Our scrambled plan - thanks to maps.google.com
I suppose it would make us slightly less competitive having few skills, little experience, no charts and a chance of making it there and back no more than a soggy cat. We’ll prove ourselves better than a soggy cat soon enough though.
The reason we were so keen to do it this sunday was a race. Brighton Yacht Club is heading down Saturday and racing back sunday. Apparently the weather’s up the spout too.
