      Pumping Iron

      Jun 7, 2019

      These days as I put to sea in my modern classic Mason 44, I feel I’m leading a sheltered life. Unless she decides – for whatever obscure reason governs her plastic soul – to syphon in a quick bilge-full through one of her many pumps, she sails dry, t

      The Ashes

      Sep 9, 2022

      It’s almost 50 years since my wife Roz and I moved aboard our first serious cruising boat. While paying off our overdraft, we lived in a mud berth on a rickety pier attached to what was then Moody’s yard at the top of the Hamble River. It was univers

      A Tableau Of Life And Death

      Dec 22, 2022

      When discussing death over an intimate candle-lit dinner with a former future-ex who said she’d like her ashes scattered on the River Blackwater I got my diary out and said: “I’m free on the 20th.” Turns out this was the wrong thing to say – I only m

      A Knotty Subject

      Feb 7, 2020

      Many readers will be unaware that, a couple of decades ago, the RYA cruising syllabus still specified the ability to whip a rope’s end in a seamanlike manner. I’m sad to report that this quietly disappeared somewhere around 2003. On the whole, the sy

      The Greatest Gift?

      Mar 26, 2020
