Giles and Paula's Great Retirement Adventure

Now that was bloody tight. And with 20-25 knots of wind coming over the starboard quarter, I would be lying if I claimed that I was not bricking it. @Madame Buttonfly , bless her, offered to take the wheel because she didn't mind as much as me if she stuffed it…...
