I've started the 2nd prototype wheelhouse extension (and dismantled the first). We had proved the concept but wanted the central fixed part a little narrower. The goals are a full cockpit enclosure AND moving the mainsheet from the top of the aft cabin to above the wheelhouse (better safety and a better sheeting angle). We also refitted the timber trim on the port side complete with the front zip for the first removable window section. We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP.

When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).

The 2023 season got off to the tradition start with the Quoile Yacht club host the spring series on the picturesque shores of strangford lough. With two J109 and two Impala 28's on the staring line in the ICR class there would a race within the race for all competitors. Going to Red got of to a great start with their Code Zero powering them off the start line, allowing them to stretch out a good lead by the time they had made it to mark 5. They did not look back, increasing they lead at every mark, sliding up the the first beat in the deepest part of the lough to get the most assistance from the tide before reaching under some of the competitors in the NHC class with their kite up before taking dropping the kit in front of Killyleagh Yacht Club and beating back up the Quoile River to the take the win both across the line and on corrected time. The racing was tight for the minor places was tight with both the Impala's getting the better of the Jammie Dogger, the other J109 in the fleet.
