‘2041′ in Cardiff

11th June, 2010

Morning broke to a beautiful sunny day. We set about readying ‘2041’ for her visitors; public, students, teachers, media, councilmen and businessmen alike. Cardiff welcomed us with open arms.. truly a warm and friendly city. During the day we were ‘open’ and available to the general public for guided tours in and around ‘2041’. In the evening, sails out in the bay were organised and well attended by our sponsor G24i, the Scott Society, Council and IAE family participants and BDConsulting. All who have played an important part in our arrival and stay in Cardiff. Thank you too to Cardiff Harbour Authority for our perfect berthing space. Guests were welcomed aboard with ‘don’t go overboard or you’ll get wet!’ Then put to work, hauling the main up and being kept well busy with our constant tacking from side to side due to the size of the bay… ‘2041’ couldn’t quite stretch her wings completely. Then a few drinks and snacks to calm the well earned hunger pains and we were back to shore to tie up for the night and set all ashore hoping they would get their land legs again soon. It was great fun having each group on board….our family continues to grow.
