Once out of the water Richard worked hard to prepare Captiva for 2024. He added a new cockpit canopy which looks really cosy.

We managed to spend some time on the water during the winter months rowing and training for the International Gig Rowing Championships. We rowed in all weathers around the Fal estuary.

Our first race of the season (and Sue’s first ever race) was 24th March at the Helford Mini Scillies. The conditions were quite difficult but it was a great experience.
