We left to visit family and came back to wet bilges…we know Kotor Bay in Montenegro had severe rainstorms while we were gone. In preparation of being away from the boat we removed our Bimini and dodger which opened up the companionway for direct wind driven rain to penetrate. This is the result. We need to investigate our auto bilge pump as it appears to be locked up. In the meantime Shelly sopped up the water and Cass worked through a solution for the louvered doors. We have a temporary solution which I will post in part 2. #sailinglife #rainstorms #bilgewater #travelblogger #vlog #boatlife #sailingeriskay
August 2022 will see the start of the Royal Ocean Racing Club’s most tactically challenging offshore race as competitors in the non-stop Round Britain and Ireland Race set off on the 1,805 nautical mile marathon, run every four years. Confirming their continued support of the toughest event in the RORC racing calendar is longterm partner Sevenstar Yacht Transport who are a leading Dutch yacht transport and logistics company. The 2022 Sevenstar Round Britain & Ireland Race is their fifth consecutive title sponsorship of the race; a partnership dating back to 2006. First organised by the Royal Ocean Racing Club (RORC) in 1995, the Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland Race circumnavigates all the islands of the UK, including Muckle Flugga, the most northerly point, which at just under 61 degrees is further north than Cape Horn (56 deg) is south and a significant milestone for any sailor. The 2022 Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland Race will feature a wide variety of yachts racing under the IRC rating rule as well as one design and open classes, such as IMOCA, Class40 and Multihulls. The majority of the fleet will race fully crewed, but with the popularity of the Two-Handed class in recent years, the race is expected to have a record entry. The Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland Race starts on Sunday 7th August 2022 from Cowes, Isle of Wight, UK. All boats will carry trackers and full coverage of the race, including a Virtual race will be available at: http://roundbritainandireland.rorc.org/ #SRBI #SevenstarYachtTransport
