Arwen is a 14'6" yawl designed by famous New Zealand boat designer, John Welsford. In this video, I head off searching for dolphin and whales off Plymouth Sound and try to eliminate the ever present throat to clew crease once and for all.
I built Arwen over two and a half years in my garage and she was launched in 2010. Since then we have cruised the rivers and coastal waters of South Devon and Cornwall. You can follow our adventures at Arwen's blog www.arwensmeanderings.blogspot.co.uk or here on her RU-vid channel where you can download videos or themed playlists / plymouthwelshboy .

If you would like me to address a particular dinghy cruising aspect, from my beginner's perspective, in a forthcoming video - then drop me a line below and if you have any nice, constructive, friendly advice to improve my sailing skills, please do let me know and thank you.
