            She's fine actually. Open a few windows and/or hatches and we usually have flow of air inside....

              That's good. Plus the water temperature must help keep things cooler too.

                I think in the cabins downstairs that helps because they are partially below water level.....

                  I plan to take SAKURA down to The Med next May. I say I, because P does not want to do the long passages, and anyway she will miss Tiger.

                  I need crew. So if any of you would like a few days or a lot of days cruising adventure, let me know. I will not be able to be specific with dates until we are about to leave, because the weather will dictate when I do leave. So I need a pool of people, and hope that at least one of them can be with me when I leave. Dropping off/picking people en-route is part of the plan

                  Rough plan.

                  Gosport - Guernsey (for cheap diesel) - Brittany - Chanel du Four, Brest, Bay of Biscay (36 hours offshore), Galicia, coast of Portugal, Gibraltar (for cheap diesel), Ibiza (42 hours off shore)........

                    @Giles definitely in for an adventure! I can imagine that you will get the most people volunteering for the Ibiza leg of the journey…you know, just in case a raft of 20 somethings volleyball team with beautifully tanned skin are in distress and in need of rescuing…

                      @Giles I’d be up for part of the journey. Don’t mind starting in Gosport either, unlike Mr Women’s volleyball above me
