2025 has been a mixed year, no long trips but several short trips and some upgrades.
I won't show pictures but I have installed a holding tank in preparation for a possible trip to The Netherlands. This is a relatively simple installation but took quite a long time as I did it while the boat was afloat. Fitting a 40l tank and associated hoses on an Invicta 26 was interesting.
Almost finished, is the installation of an electric windlass. Again for coastal trips, I wanted to do this before age caught up with me and hopping around on deck / cockpit became too tricky. Photos will follow once I have completed the installation and tested things.
A couple of trips with club members have been great fun. Many members at our sailing club are in the process of doing their boats up so a trip out helps them remember why they are doing the work.
I have cleaned the hull off in anticipation of some winter sailing.
Next job will be to re-commission the heating system, brrrr.
