KC's first sailings of 2012

Words and Pictures by Jeremy Gold

Some pictures from Saturday's KC sailings - a day earlier than planned on 7 April 2012 - showing some of the fruits of a heavy winter refit (PSPS support gratefully acknowledged, also a substantial gift from a supporter for new carpets).

 

There are still a few jobs to do, and a new canopy and side screens are on the way.
