arriving at St Katherine Docks for the Queens jubillee bash |
the Queen's rather bling Jubillee barge tied up - our My Alice behind her |
after the party - the jubillee bunting is all down, crowds are home |
quite exciting to find our My Alice on the cover of Classic Boat - well, she is one of their "world's top 200 boats" |
our new topsail fits a lot better than the old one - bigger club on the clew too |
stunning picture of her by Tim Bees - see his pictures on Flickr - everyone aboard, even Lys |
Real power reaching along on the Blackwater - we moved our topmast runners further aft after this! |
and just a reminder of what she looked liked before all the work - this was before we owned her of course |
Old Gaffers 50th celebration at Cowes - windy as heck, we were reefed right down but she fair flew |
huge repaint during winter of 2013/14 but she is in fab condition underneath |

the topmast looks so small from below - until you try to take it off the boat! |
