      @Giles Now how did she find that, but from the joke thread she is quite brilliant!

              There she is......Unfortunately, the commercial dock she is currently moored in is closed to mere mortals like us on a Sunday, so this photo is taken from across the harbour.....

              Our instructions for name size and placement on the bow were not carried out, so that will get fixed somewhere between here and home, probably when @Alex comes to join us somewhere on the Iberian Peninsular.....

                  You could also check around and see if anyone sells these:

                    I was chatting to David Thompson (brother of Alex) yesterday. He said there are many Orca in The Gibraltar Straits at the moment (chasing the Blue Fin Tuna as they migrate East)......God, I would love to see one of those......

                          Yes. But there are some complications (thanks a fucking lot Brexit), we may have to go to Palma to do the Spanish exit paperwork (not needed before Brexit) because the Menorcan customs officers don't know what to do (or can't be bothered - most likely). So we may decide to do some hours here, then the balance of the 25 hours between here and Palma and do the ATF change in Palma. Currently, it is as clear as mud......

                              you mean you'd love to catch one of those to christen the boat? 👀
