Here is a good time-filler I'd recommend if you have a screen. The Odessey is a biopic about the deeds of Jacques Cousteau chronicling his life once he left the navy to become an ocean explorer and film-maker. Based on the book Capitaine de La Calypso by Albert Falco and Yves Paccalet it covers…

I have received a couple of complaints about members not being truthful about their age. Whilst some of you may be lucky enough to look younger than your age PLEASE be honest. It is very frustrating to be contacted by members that turn out to be 10 years older than they claim on their profile. You w…

There is a new article on the Lovesail News Blog entitled Yacht Rock. If you haven't heard of Yacht Rock, I hadn't (my musical appreciation was still to mature in the mid-1970's) then have a read. You'll also find some examples of top Yacht Rock tunes to add to your YachtRock Pla…

I ventured over to Cowes yesterday to watch the inaugural King’s Cup regatta. Eight teams were invited to take part and each team was represented by a charity that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are patrons of. To help raise awareness of the charities the teams had a celebrity ambassador for the…

I haven't managed to get any sailing in this Bank Holiday weekend, far too many house chores, but I did get the chance to go Kayaking with my neighbourino! At the end of last year I managed to pick up a bargain on eBay, a sit-on Islander Paradise kayak. I had been looking for something cheap an…

I just wanted to highlight that the new message facility does arrange messages in a thread. Some of you have thought it does not. The messages are arranged so that the most recent message is above the reply box. If you look to the bottom right corner of the last message in the thread you will see a…

I was very lucky to have the chance to get out on the water this weekend. A few days bouncing around the Dorset coastline. On the Weymouth to Swanage leg we had a tiny hitchhiker that flew onto the boat. She rested a while hopping around the cockpit and sitting on the clutches, then took off as quic…

Yesterday I finally managed to get out on the water for the first time this year, and what a great day for sailing. We left Lymington around 09:30 so not too early a start (I'm not a morning person!). My cousin is kind enough to let me hang out on his Jeanneau 53, so with a crew of 7 we hit the…
