Not happy with the boats name, we took the decision to rename her. After much debate we took Nancy’s grandfather’s boats name – the ‘Odd Times’ and carried on the tradtion – it also works a pun ‘Odd Times II’ but it isnt really meant as that. The Ship Registry was dealt with and a new name added to the transom.

We also needed a name for our new dinghy – an Ebay bargin – and Sparklefarts was christened.

There was much more garden rigging and measurements, lists made of work to do.
