A little under a week a go I met Pip Hildesley and her yacht “The Shed”. Pip had recently arrived home from a 6,500 mile solo voyage from Uruguay back to Levington. Pip and “The Shed” are also competing in the OSTAR. Pip’s race preparations now kick off at full speed.
Also last week while wondering through Spitalfields market in search of lunch I met Montgomery (Monty). We discussed sailing and he turned out to be keen on the idea of helping me out. As a result a financial transaction took place between myself and Monty’s owner and I am now pleased to say that Monty will be making his way to Rhode Island with me via his own custom made swing (made by Jan). The new internal grab rails are proving to be useful already !
