Charts and stuff

Well it was day two or D minus however many days before the trips starts, but it was another day another bag of bumf from doing research at the boat show. Had a long chat to the nice people at the admiralty, it seems we need lots of charts, which I knew, but I thought we could get better coverage in less charts.....the small chart folios will see us most of the way up the bottom half of Scotland, and then we'll be onto large scale charts and guide books as well as the charts tucked away in our Garmin Plotter.

Had a second look at windlasses, and will have to do a bit more research into chain and all the goodies that go with it.

Planning the route is something that will depend on the weather, when we go, and where we go, we're in the lap of the gods. But we can prepare the yacht as best we can, money permitting.
