I have noticed in recent weeks, the avatar of a recent member Madwelshman. Now not disagreeing with that name as I feel it could apply to many people of both genders in this Principality, I must say I was pleased to see another member from the same part of the world as myself. However, Madwelshman, may I ask you where you sail? I don't know Haverfordwest very well, but was not aware of a lake in the area and I wouldn't have thought the river to be very suitable. Where I live, Swansea Valley, I have the choice of three venues varying in distance between 20 and 50 miles away, and that's the one I use, but I would be interested to know of any venues West of me.

Cheers, Nerys

Whoever built them must have had a thing about schooners. auxiliary ones at that. They look well built, have fun with the sails as well as the motors. I'm sure you will get all the advice you could want
