      So necessity being the mother of invention, I got the zip ties out and bodged a temporary solution with the help of the gangway which we will not use on this trip...

        With it being so hot and dry, do you two find yourself spending more time on the boat and/or around the water?

        There was a picture yesterday of a jeans release where the football pitch look extremely dry. Is it that bad all over Gosport/Portsmouth?
