Brand-new state-of-the-art toilets and showers are now officially open at our Hamble Point Marina on the River Hamble. This major upgrade is part of a wider £1.2 million investment in the marina, with £500,000 dedicated specifically to transforming the washroom facilities. And there’s more to come! Work is currently underway on the redevelopment of the marina office, set to open this summer. The new space will feature a welcoming reception, a small essentials store for refreshments and supplies, and 24/7 access to the new facilities directly through the office. Visit http://www.hamblepointmarina.co.uk for more details on the marina.

At one point, we noticed the anchor light wasn’t working. Apparently, after six years the battery was dead. We were able to buy a spare anchor light, and I went up the mast to replace it. The first time, we thought it would be easy—just replace the light or the battery—but it turned out that more work was needed. The anchor light had to be unscrewed and the two wires had to be reconnected in the terminal block. And all of that at 22 meters up, right on top of the mast. After some instructions from Gilles, I went up the mast again, this time bringing tools along in the side pockets of the “chair” (bosun’s chair) in which you’re hoisted up. It worked, and the anchor light was shining brightly again at the top of the mast!
