Sleepless in the English Channel #14
We knew the passage between the North Sea and the English Channel would be a challenge: we got our money worth. We left IJmuiden and set sail towards Cherbourg, knowing that the narrowest and shallowest part of the passage would be done by night. We pla...

10 days to the move, we are getting the boat ready for us to move onboard! I was secretly hoping that Ryan would have put the boat back in order while I was away, sailing across the North Sea. Nope! It had a lot of work left to do… Coming home, the r...
