Short shaft and adjustable mount. Most chandlerys will sell them. Thanks for your comment.

I have self bailers. Thanks for watching.

Glad you enjoyed it. All music is credited in the description. Thanks

Works fine with no modifications, (see my Poole Trips!). I would recommend having a way to stop it sliding about in the box if you're cooking onboard.

Congrats on getting your boat and hope to see you on the water soon. The block on the traveller is my own doing and I think its called.... a double fiddle, swivel, clam cleat block!!! Or something like that. Having a cleat on it comes with some risk so you need to decide if it's for you. Fair winds.

End of June, weather was starting to turn and had some windy experiences. Great fun. Thanks for the comment.

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 great place to sail , we had 3 days of excitable wind but 4 days perfect weather , i thought i didnt see your boat we stopped at the same place 😉👍

Thanks for the kind words. I'm more than happy to catch up & chat about boats ☺️ She's a fine boat for single handling but better with 2.

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 That would be great as I'm looking at a Wanderer (No. 51) for sale at Emsworth. What's the best way to contact you? Are you a member at DQSC?

@@neiljones68 Hi, check your messages on the website. 👍

A wonderful album if I do say so myself.

You can but you can only launch / retrieve ~2hrs either side of high tide. There's a bigger hard a little further along at Itchenor which is less tide dependent. Enjoy.

Fenders are secured by fixed loop eyes I put on. Look forward to seeing you on the water. Feel free to say Hi.

Thank you for your kind words. Not sure what you mean as I'm a genuine amateur learning everything as I go. Pls keep an eye out this year as I plan to spread my wings a little!!

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 As a total newbie myself there is very little stuff on you tube about the Wanderer. From watching your videos I’ve been able to work out quite a lot. I’d be very interested in how you raise and step the mast and how you set up kicker. You have a lot of knowledge and the videos are put together really well 👍

It does.

Thanks for your feedback. I'm very much aware of people's mixed opinions regarding music on sailing video and these are amateur videos. Hope you still enjoy them and encourage you to get on the water.

Thank you, I hope to get to sail Poole Harbour at some point so I may get closer than you think. Have fun and stay safe.

I'm a coarse sailor, what more can I say! Thanks for your comments, I also enjoy watching others sailing videos so I hope mine can offer some entertainment.

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 sire and I.like your videos but when you sitting on the port side your hands are correct but when u sit on the starboard side they are the wrong way around. I am.not nit picking but try to hold your tiller with the hand closest to the tiller on each tack its much better try it and see. Good luck.

Hope this helps

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 Brilliant thanks very much 👍❤️

Hi, Thanks for the feedback. Mine isn't to easy to get out of the water either and is a combination of brute strength and practice. However launching isn't really a problem, can you elaborate?

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 sure. I have to launch it, then attempt to ground it, take the trailer back, then relaunch and then get in it. It's possible but a slight headache. Any tips Thanks again

@@rhettmoir hi, sounds fairly routine, is there anywhere you can tie it to instead of grounding it? And can to leave the trailer nearby? A second person can help! Either way it's always a labour of love.

Don't blame you!

Hi, I launch from Dell Quay or a little further down and less tide dependant in Itchenor. Both are public hards.

Sound, thanks a million👍.

Mine are cheap 2nd hand oars & 9ft long. Just got theses to get going with rowing. Probably could get away with shorter ones and I also intend to use them when becalmed, but a good test in strong winds & tide!! Bet it's lovely where you sail!?

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 9ft is a good length. The longer they are ,the slower you can row for the same speed. My place is not a sailing paradise. There is some current I have to deal with and the prevalling wind goes mostly in the same direction. But I live at just a few minutes of the ramp and I know the place very well. There are islands and many nice spots to picnic or camp. If you don't mind, here is a rowing video I made. :-) th-cam.com/video/BZG3i8Up7C8/w-d-xo.html

Sorry to hear about your boat parts being taken and also sorry that I can't make a sensible suggestion for you. At times I've thought that a sliding goose neck maybe preferable! Individual choice I guess. Hope you find what you're looking for. Thanks for watching.

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 thanks for getting back - sounds like the sliding version is obsolete so I will have to rivet one on 🙄

Thanks for the tips. Always appreciated. Oars much better than paddles & quieter than an outboard!!

@@adiaryofacoarsesailor3862 Yes, oars are much better than paddles. I'm considering an electric outboard at the moment. I sail, mostly, on the River Ouse at York and the river is tree lined for most of its length creating a lot of wind shadow so I need an alternative source of propulsion. More research required there. In the meantime I'll carry on with wind and Armstrong's Patent Propulsion. Best wishes Al

Hi, I'm no expert but am wondering why? I can't think how not using the jib / genoa is a concern. As long as the foresail is acting in place of the forestay I cannot think why a furled foresail is a problem! I've scowered the manual but can't find anything obvious. Can you explain more? Thanks

Do you remove your fore stay when using your furling jib or do you not have any issues; bought a Wanderer last week cleaning her up this week and hope to sail next weekend… Sail no - 524 🤘

@Matt Higginson sorry for the late reply. Yes I do remove my forestay when using my genoa. Tried various options but to no avail.

It's a 2.4hp air cooled Honda 4stroke. Very reliable but fairly heavy.

I note you could picnic unencumbered by canvas. Do you have a 'lazy jack' system? Thinking of adding such to my Gull.

Thanks. It's a Honda 2.3hp Air cooled 4stroke.
