Dreamtime Around Britain

Woke up aground but was soon floating again on the incoming tide. Got some advice from Matt Sharman one of the helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and like-minded members of the UK Wayfarer Association and after chucking a few bucketfuls of water at the centreboard and a bit of wiggling it was free.

A couple of fellahs out sailing a catermaran came by and asked if I needed help, they advised me about a sail loft (Sail Register) in Market Rasen. Thanks for asking and the info guys.
When the water dropped again I went ashore. There were a couple of chaps at the Humber Mouth Yacht Club. I enquired about showers and Steve (rear-commodore) warmly invited me to use the facilities. Thank you Steve and the HMYC.

The sail loft were kind enough to fit me in on a while you wait basis even though they have a long lead time for orders. So took a taxi and two shakes of a lamb's tail later my sail was fixed. Thank you Sail Register.

Got back to Tetney haven and had a much needed shower, squelched back to the boat, did a bit of fiddling, then food and passage planning particularly the crossing of Humber shipping lane which looks very busy, busier than the solent for big ships I reckon.
