This blog is about my trials and tribulations of owning a 18 foot trailer sailer. Both have been Bradwell 18's that I grew up seeing on the River Trent in Nottingham. I first owned Holly a mk1 that I had lots of fun with and was sad to see her go. After a brief try of a larger Jaguar22 I decided to return to Bradwells and recently bought Y.KNOT a mk2 and have been impressed so far with the improvments over the older mk1 boats. Hope you enjoy reading my exploits as I share them.

HOLLY go's to sea
It has been ages since i have put anything down.
Whent on holiday to Norfolk so had a chance to put HOLLY on the Broads in an area near Waveny and onto Oulton Broad. On a couple of days took Holly out to Lowestoft and based at the Royal Suffolk and Norfolk Yacht club, which i do recomend as you are straight into the middle of town. Had a couple of days trying the sailing out and found that the hybrid system is not as good as i thought it would be, am now trying to sorce another mast and have just recently brought a yacht Genoa. This would meen I am starting to gain a list of jobs for the winter months.
