Nancy Blackett’s penultimate Dutch week so far…
From the Nancy Blackett Trust
Nancy Blackett’s penultimate week in Holland got off to a leisurely start, writes crewman Barry Goldbourne…
Our new crew took over a great-looking Nancy Blackett at midday on Saturday, spending a leisurely afternoon in Middelburg after a 5.00am start to arrive in Holland. In the evening we had a lovely meal with the crew of the Dutch Yacht Godis.
Sunday was another lovely day – we sailed around Veerse Meer in force 2-4 south-westerly winds, before heading to Veere for the night. We had a lovely sunny evening, and a demonstration of how to manoeuvre Nancy Blackett in close quarters.
