First sail Victoria 30

Hi all finally launched Jean my vic 30 on 22nd at Ardrossan, had my first sail today to troon marina for the rest of the season. The fixing of jean has been extensive to say the least, she has black anti foul a red plum line white topside and very dark blue top line. The sail to troon was difficult due a rolling swell from the south west after strong winds yesterday, jean took it in her stride motor sailing most of the way. Really pleased with her performance as my last yacht was beneteau o 45 and not sailed for the past 3.5 years, now berthed all safe and sound ready for more play time All the best Neal ps I would like to put some photos on but you need a slide rule a degree and 6 a levels ? Help anyone

Hi Neal.
Well done on getting 'Jean' launched and delivered safely.
If you are accessing the VSA forum via a laptop/desktop, then it is straightforward to upload your pictures. Hover over the icons above the text entry box and select the 'image' option. You can then select and upload your photos. Remember to look at the 'preview' page to see how the pictures look before submitting. You can also go back into your last post and 'edit' it adding text or photos (provided that you are logged in).

Good luck!

Charlie.

Thanks Charles for the info unfortunately I'm only working from my iPad as we are trying to finish our house build. Would it be possible to email the editor with details so he can load them on to the forum Neal

Send them on to web@victoriashadow.co.uk Neal, and I'll get them posted in here for you.

I'll have to dig out my iPad (it's around, somewhere) and see if I can work out some instructions for mobile devices.
