Swallowing the anchor
After over 40 years of sailing, I've given up trying to get my wife enthused about it, sold my yacht and bought a caravan. I did have an old Eccles Topaz some years ago when the children were small, so I am not a complete novice. My Avondale Dart 380/2 is
a lot more complex than that old van was with all the creature comforts that now abound in a modern van. I felt my trusty old Mk 1 Focus was a bit slight for towing so I've gone for a three year old Ford Kuga, black with the tinted privacy glass. The only
trouble with that is that it makes it look like your local neighbourhood drug dealer's wheels!
I shan't have to pay quite so much attention to the weather forecasts now and the only thing to remember is, when booking sites, that I want a pitch and not a berth
