Saturday is a day in port -in Torquay. Apart from missing the festivities on the Hamble I have few regrets about spending the day here since there is a strong SW wind, 6-7 with fine horizontal drizzle. This morning Ant and Jane, who so stoicly helped get Bonita down to the west country had to leave due to various work commitments. We borrowed a marina trolley and took it down to the station piled high with kitbags. Tomorrow D joins the boat bringing among other things I hope better bank holiday weather.
Bonita was designed by William Crossfield and built in his yard at Arnside, Cumbria in 1888. This occasional blog describes some of her adventures - including her 2013 and 2023 circumnavigations of Britain and her Baltic cruise of 2016.
