Getting ready and excited


Cariad is a Westerly Corsair that we bought last year and have been refitting and improving over that period. She now has a re-sealed bottom, new engine, new radar and plotter and a host of smaller improvements for comfort and safety. Cariad means "darling" in Welsh and she is indeed our darling. We have enjoyed a great year based in Coruna and now move to a new base for a year or so - we will be sure to come back to Coruna in the future tho!!


It is week to go before we gather at La Coruna and hopefully make the 600 mile trip to move Cariad to Albufeira in the Algarve.




Cariad is as ready as she can be and we are just bursting to get going!! The radar has been fitted and the last few jobs will be done when we arrive 20/8/09........


















.......and we have stored the essentials already.


End of the first entry of this blog; next time we will be in Coruna and getting ready for the off (and it will be someone else's turn to do the blog entry!!) MJF
