Chris up our mast test driving the Banks Bosun's Chair - he declared it the comfiest he'd ever been in! Sadly he was unable to fix the deck light! Oh well, back to the drawing board with that one.

Who says you can't live on board and be smart? James in traditional 'Cavalry Memorial' dress stepping off in Hyde Park followed by members of the serving Regiment and Old Comrades ..... all the 'rig' now on board OceanRainbow ready for the next occasion!
