We are going to be attempting an Ocean Yachtmaster qualifying passage in the coming months. Our last attempt saw us run for a bolt hole, meaning it could not be used as our passage. So, with an ocean passage on the horizon, we’ve been busy prepping the boat, which has seen us invest in a new Iridium system, fit a new cooker, fit a new life raft, do a rig check, and get a new storm and main sail – among other things. It has been a very costly few months!
