Final bits ordered

Today I have reached the point where I can wait no longer for sponsors and supporters to provide the things I need for the trip and so I have placed the final order.

I have had to buy 13 charts at £15 each out of my own pocket. It is sad that I haven’t found enough people to buy just one chart for me. I shall be selling them individually after the event and hopefully I will get some of that money back.

Cleaning stuff, a new handheld compass, more softwood bungs… now comes the job of fitting it all in to what is quite a small boat with very limited storage. In truth, the Merry Fisher 625 actually has a lot of storage for its size but that still doesn’t amount to a great deal when packing for 3 months away from home.
