I have a Seal 28' (Sophies Choice)currently moored at Rye Harbour (East Sussex) which is a new area for me. I motored her down from the Thames (where she has been for too long) a year ago to Queenborough on the Medway and then sailed from Queenborough round to Rye with a couple of friends.

I am not a hugely experienced sailor, but have day skipper/vhf etc.

If anyone is interested in sailing with me, preferably relatively experienced, on a more regular basis around this area then they would be welcome aboard! Perhaps a member without a boat might be interested. I am 63 years of age but still pretty active.

My wife is not really into sailing - but does enjoy the run ashore.

She (the boat that is) is out of the water at present but due to be re-launched at the end of this month.
