Atlas Sailing

07/11/2023

Very pleased to say there was triumph in the Mens Pairs Knock-out last night.
Me and my new ‘bezzie’, Wayne Merrick, won 5-4 in a very close final which included a 12 dart leg that brought us back to 4-4.

First season back after more than 30 years of not playing for me so it was a great honour to partner this legend of darts!

Is this a good comparison for social media these days?…….and I thought of this all by myself 😃

If you compare all the media apps to pubs on a pub crawl, it goes like this

You’ll call in different ones ie FB, YouTube, LinkedIn etc etc but Twitter is the pub full of drunken nutters that you avoid going in because you’ll just end up in an argument or getting mithered by some inebriated perv!

Ps if you’re using Threads now, give me a follow……search Andy Dobson or Atlassailing

Boat inspection sorted, all looks well to leave Portsmouth tomorrow morning.
Southern Spain is the end point all being well.

Taking a boat from Portsmouth to Spain starting next weekend. Hopefully this is something we won’t encounter around the Iberian Peninsula 😵‍💫

Speaking on This Morning, April Boyes, 31, told Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary about a scary encounter with the creatures off the coast of Spain.

It’s like coming home.
I didn’t realise how much I’d missed this place.

Here’s us signing out for a while and thanking everyone that’s sailed with us.
There’s been some fantastic people and we have some very fond memories to keep.
Thank you all and hopefully see you sometime in the future………after I’ve had a lonnnnnng break.

Well folks, that’s it as far as Atlas goes. All lifted out of the water and on the market.
Not sure what I want to be doing in the future as far as the sailing goes but what I do know is that I’m looking forward to a lonnnnnng break.
Thanks to all that have sailed with us 🙏

This pic was last night while we were waiting in the lifting pen.

Another thing, I’m glad I won’t have to shoe horn the yacht into that tight concrete space again. Made my arse twitch every time I had to do it😂

Here’s some pics that show the rockfall that has closed the Corinth Canal.
It’s been closed a while now and doesn’t look like it will be opening anytime soon.

First time back out to the boat this year. Looks like the birds have been partying on it while we were away.
