A couple of links. The value for money tool for punching holes in the canvas was from:

Very Nearly About Sailing
Just about sailing is simply a light hearted video diary of someone who has wanted a sailing boat for as long as he can remember. Then in 2015 I decided it's now or never. Let the adventures begin! I bought a lovely Mirage 28 which I recently sailed round the South of the UK (check the short series of 13 videos April to May 2017) to a traditional boatyard in Kent for a refit prior to taking her off to venture somewhere warmer. Who knows where the adventure will take me. I would be delighted if you want to tag along with me and comment.

VNAS April 2025 – I’ve just bought a brand new Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 – Why?
I've been wittering on about getting a new bike for a few months. It's finally been decided - and I've bought it. But why this particular bike? Basically because it does pretty much all I want it to do. Moto-camping, travelling, on road, off-road. And it's...

VNAS February 2025 – Ride out to a castle to test new bar risers and head race bearings – success!
It was a cold day (4 degrees C), but otherwise perfect weather and a good opportunity to see what difference, if any, the new head race bearings and handlebar risers made. In short; a huge difference!
