Sometimes put the temperature up on screen but only normally when I think it’s of use. I’m an outdoor sorter person and I feel the cold 🥶. That’s how I ended up with Swallow in the first place.

Was close to the point of selling Swallow but I’ve passed it now. Getting my act together and getting on with winter maintenance. Hope next year provides some good sailing. 👍

Nice to see a new video with you ! Last summer I finally could get our boat back in the water, and we sailed for 1 month from Brittany to Jersey and back. There is no better therapy in my book ! I believe rough years come with getting older, so you need a strong antidote ! Hope this beautiful Swallow keeps working for you ! 😎
