I can understand the appeal of dry storage while a storm rages, but then you might get a crisp dry, sunny December day and the sailing bug kicks in again...Mark The Skint Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04892877003107509621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4034021522087099008.post-75830470527060631692015-11-19T12:32:56.372+00:002015-11-19T12:32:56.372+00:00Always happy whenSparrow's ashore at this time...Always happy whenSparrow's ashore at this time of year.... :o)Steve-the-Wargamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077311120172727690noreply@blogger.com
