St Mary’s Harbour, Scilly Isles, after a training weekend.

By Sunday afternoon we had her up out of the water with ourselves and the boat still intact!

Cooking facilities on board.

Our overnight mooring.

Our first training weekend on the boat in Poole. She is about to be floated off the trailor.

Heritage Explorer now with her vinyls removed being washed.

The bar was straightened farmer style!

After ploughing up tarmac across the country because the tow bar got bent whilst the boat was removed from the container, having arrived back in the UK from it previous crossing, we had to straighten it.

 

First job was to make the boat as light as possible, this involved removing hundreds of freeze dried meals.

Our first look at the boat.

We bought our boat second hand. When we went to collect her she had to be removed from a container as she had just been shipped back from Australia.
