Moored alongside the h2g2 jetty

Hello


Welcome please come abord and share a bottle with me. Please Please leave a message ⇒

All the sails are stowed away and the rigging is secure....


So your coming aboard then....

Here we are Docked alongside the jetty.

Just time for a quick walk around

An old-fashioned sailing ship.

"The Placid Maiden"


Ship Shape and..well you know the rest...


Here in the cockpit we have the wheel for steering and the main workings for all the ropework for the sailssmiley - headhurtsAlso here we have the compass, one of the most inportant items on board, without this you would not get to where you want to go. Looking forward there is 12ft of coachroof of the cabin with the main mast that holds the sails, this looms 24ft up into the sky with the boom for the mainsail returning aft.

Here we are at the bottom of the steps in the cabin, on the Port side we have the navigational desk where all the charts are kept. This is where I plot all my courses and keep my log book. Here is also the VHF radio and GPS. Next to this going forward is the cooker, gally and sink with running water then prep area with fridge underneath. This is where all the meals and hot drinks are madesmiley - sporksmiley - coffeesmiley - tea. On the Starboard side of the cabin I have a seating area with lockers behind and undreneath to store daily use items also here I have the dinning table running down the center of the main cabin. This seating area also turns into a bunk for sleeping in if needed by guests.smiley - sleepy
