Ep 390 | Time to LEARN HOW TO SAIL, European Vacation
We leave Ipswich Marina for a more affordable spot as Magnus and Jon install a new windlass and get Nutshell ready for Europe. This episode follows our week at Shotley Marina while Magnus prepares for the test we need before entering European waters.
We leave Ipswich Marina and head to a more affordable spot.
Magnus and Jon install the new windlass, and we spend a week at Shotley Marina before moving on again so Magnus can sit the test he needs before we can enter Europe.
Nutshell also gets her new stickers, as she is now officially named Nutshell.
As always, thanks for watching.
Until next time,
Wendy and Magnus
