Round Horse Sands and back

Paul Le Page

Our first outing on Mattro just the two of us - F4 to start then up to F5 in the Solent. Made for challenging conditions at times!

Vicky Payne

One week of boat ownership and what an adventure! This was our first ever sailing trip just the two of us! Many lessons learnt already in one week of boat ownership (plastic plates can break if they fly out of a locker in a Force 5! Vicky’s not keen on F5 helming!) but also many things to be proud of: getting better at flaking the main sail (getting much neater!), and our first trip out just the two of us today- no fallings out (personally and literally!), navigation through the Solent, collecting the mooring bouy (first time!)…. Lovely to wave our neighbours “Helen” heading off on the voyage as we were coming into the harbour ❤️ Here’s to more adventures! (And much more learning!!)
