They race by like a broken down dam once your over 60. I’m not adding any boating stuff as I’ve not clocked up much in the way of sailing hours this year. Mainly due to pressing health matters that required investigation and treatment for much of the year but we are working on the boat at the moment and having Boxing Day aboard. Interestingly next year will mark our 20th year of investigator ownership. Still happy with the purchase
although I noticed a thread on the other place regarding a few old sailors slowing down.Who isn’t.
I would like to put another shout out to Emrys, who has not signed in since a few years back. Mate I’m absolutely hopeful that you’re still out there in Investigator land and your lack of participation has been due to you winning powerball, buying a Benatau and sailing back to Wales. Emrys has been a big contributor to the forum over the years and a welcome foil to my sometimes off kilter threads.
Mate, I’m hoping the fact that your 563 has not turned up for sale in any of the usual places that folks here monitor that you’re going to join us again soon.
I can’t think of another interesting way to say it this year so I’ll just say simply…sail, don’t drive over the break, it’s a shipload safer.
Merry Xmas to all from Ozzie and crew.

As a small Xmas gift, if your year, like ours, has not gone too well. Here is a laugh for those of us who like to mix a bit of inventing with our boating. I’m sure there is a little bit of Kevin in all Invesitgator owners.
there is an earlier video on him building the boat.
