In the last fortnight we covered 264 nautical miles in 71 hours, spread over 10 days. We were moving under wind power for 30 of those hours, while the rest of the time we were motor sailing or under motor alone.

Robinetta is a "Tabloid Cruiser" gaff cutter designed by Denys Rayner and launched in 1937. This log documents her history from 2007 when we bought her. Her prior history is documented here.

Hope you are well. We have been watching the weather where you are... We met you last year in Malliag. We were the Yanks you helped dock. Much appreciated. We enjoy your postings. Safe passage.
Good to hear from you! We'll be back on Robinetta on the 21st, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the weather will be kind to us again then...
