Badger
We had a last ditch constitutional around the harbour, it was absolutely freezing in the wind and also a last ditch attempt for a blip.
Apologies for another boat shot but I saw this new boat in the harbour, couldn't really miss the yellow/black. What really fascinated me was the mast right on the prow, it seems unfeasibly large for the location.
I looked it up, its a DIY plywood schooner, with a junk rigg (Chinese style sails with battens). This is quite a famous boat and has been around the world. Annie Hill wrote a book "Voyaging on a small Income" while she sailed Badger.
