an all-Welsford cruise


Kristen sends me this link for a video for an eight day cruise on Keneperu Sound in New Zealand.


Six adventurous sailors, four boats, all of them designed by John Welsford - two Navigators, one Whaler and one Scamp.


I have heard of Bootstrap and Tusk over the years.  I have seen drawings of the Whaler but not until now a finished boat.  And very impressed that the smaller Scamp kept up the pace.


If you want to know about cruising in a small boat, this is an excellent video to watch.  And it you want to know about John Welsford, this video is really a tribute to his fine work.  Enjoy!
