Running aground is one of those in-the-pit-of-your-stomach-fears all sailors have. On any boat. On any stretch of water.
This Autumn, in the half light between selling our sailboat and starting a new adventure, Liz remained on SY Esper in Malaysia while Jamie flew to the UK to spend time with his family.
After our announcement a couple of months ago that we are selling our boat, many of our subscribers and followers said, “Buy a canal boat!”
So since he was there, and he missed mucking about in boats, he decided to take up the suggestion to live on a canal boat. Just for a week.
“Can’t be harder than living on a sailboat,” he thought, as he picked up the keys to a hire boat from Bridge Boatyard, Ely.
Thing is… we’ve never run aground on our sailboat.
