Tyne (royal quays marina), Newcastle - sun 18th june

  One problem that I had during yesterdays sail was that the knots holding the radar reflector failed so that was banging about all the time. This morning I dropped the mast and refined that, taking the opportunity to hang my red ensign too. Then, once mast was up, as the winds were light, had a play about with sculling (using one oar out the back) the boatie around; it worked out OK, pretty straightforward.

  Then went and found the metro station in advance of my journey into town tomorrow, which took me past the 'Earl Zetland' which is a big boaty that has a bar on board, so had a beer or two to keep me cool on this 27C day. Currently just chillin' on me boat wondering what to do about grub, might have to break into onboard supplies.
