It's that time of year

New to us a Wanderer dinghy, small relation to the Wayfarer both designed by Ian Proctor.

At 14 feet LoA and while no means a light weight, it should be easier to handle ashore that a Wayfarer, but seems to have similar good sea keeping qualities. We wanted something suitable for sailing out in the western Solent which is where we will keep her.


It seems to have pretty much rained every weekend since I towed it home, I'm looking forward to setting up and rigging and generally go over our new toy.

  2. Steve, according to the weather report we have about 3 hours of sun breaking through this morning, but frankly I think I might wait for a better day

  3. A mini Wayfarer - before you know it you will be sailing it to Iceland and perhaps a North Sea crossing to Norway? Go on you know you want to do it.
    Love this little dinghy, I wish more of this kind were available here in NZ.

  4. Alden - I think crossing the Solent will be enough of an epic challenge, even though we have done it a few time in both our old Wayfarer and Cornish Cormorant. We’re lucky that there are plenty of these types of dinghy available here, I guess if we lived down your way i’d Be building to one of Mr Welsford’s plans - Houdini, Pathfinder or awol are my favourites.

  6. Accessing your spouses text messages and call logs demands a great caution due to the sensitivity of the matter. To avoid any trouble, it’s recommend that you seek the services of the best hacker I will tell you about, they are trustworthy professionals who can aid you in gaining entry to your partners phone and retrieving all required information from it. It can be beneficial to monitor someone closely in order to dispel any uncertainties. Nevertheless, engaging in surveillance may yield favorable outcomes. An individual is ultimately at your discretion. Feel free to proceed as you see fit. { rightwaylawrecoveryservice@gmail. com }
