		<title>Dart Cruising</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fishing outside the Dart looked a bit doubtful as I looked out over Torbay on my way over to Dartmouth. It was only blowing a 3 / 4 but as it was from the East there was a fair chop running across the Bay and looking very cloudy and grey. Having seen this on the way over I suggested to Mike we might like to try a bit of Dart Cruising and sail up the Dart to Totnes.The tide suited as we were an hour and a quarter away from ...]]></description>

		<title>Freya takes to the water &#8211; like a &#8230;.duck!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Freya is 8 months old and this was her first trip on the water in Granddads boat. Staying a week with Nan and Granddad and took the opportunity to visit Dartmouth Regatta, 2010. Because Freya is only 8 months old and we would go aboard unless she had a life-jacket, I was a little worried when it arrived and it seemed it would be a very tight fit. 
In the end there was little to worry about because Freya didn't even blink when we put her into it! Because it ...]]></description>

		<title>Three on board but only one fish &#8211; a pollack!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was another beautiful day when Steve and Adrian (Steve's son) came to pick me up then onto Noss Marina. After casting off we made our way down river when we saw the gorgeous "Earl of Pembrooke" registered in Bristol. Below is the information held on her page:-
According to Wikepedia "she is an 18th century wooden barque tall ship, currently being used for historical films. She can also be rented for excursions.
She was built in Pukavik, Sweden as "Orion" in 1945 or 1948, available sources disagree. Until 1974, the ship was ...]]></description>

		<title>Big And Small Craft On the Dart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sunday looked to be the only rain free day for the whole week so it was off to Noss Marina for a trip aboard Blue Marlin III. We arrived at the Marina to find it very busy as expected on a Sunday in summer. Did I say summer? with continual rain and strong winds for days I feel very sorry for those taking their summer vacation in Devon.
Still we set off down the Dart and could clearly see a somewhat massive vessel moored. Before we reached her however we also ...]]></description>

		<title>No fish, but a nice trip and a beautiful ship moored in the Dart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well we didn't catch any fish (we don't count Mackerel since they throw themselves onto your hook!) so that's out of the way. Now onto a beautiful ship that was moored in the river Dart. We quiet often see interesting vessels moored in the river including cruise liners and large naval ships. However today was the lovely Nahlin registered in Glasgow.
Initially we thought it was a brand new build but on old lines however when we returned home and checked her out on the internet we found she had just ...]]></description>

		<title>Fishing With The Three Amigo&#8217;s (Brothers!)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A rare event indeed when the three of us actually come together in one place. Whilst David our younger brother only lives in Lifton his work keeps him very busy and he cannot get out fishing that often -shame!!!!
Still he arrived not long after me at Mikes home in Brixham at around 0900 Friday 8th July on a warm sunny morning with a shopping list of fish required for his family barbie.
As it was the 1st of the month our departure from the berth at Noss Marina was slightly delayed ...]]></description>

		<title>Wreck produces 1 Pollack &#8211; Steve breaks his barren spell!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The last three weeks have been glorious with regard to sunshine but the last two trips saw rough seas, however Steve said it looked like glass when he came over the top of Brixham, so we decided to go offshore to a wreck we have fished before, about 7 miles out of Dartmouth.
Before we set off from the marina however the gremlin's came back with the GPS, taking its time to find any satellites, so it may be a replacement is needed after all. It certainly brought home again our ...]]></description>

		<title>Fishing Has Its Ups And Downs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fishing can be a tricky business especially if you depend on the weather. Our boat Blue Marlin III is a family boat as well as a fishing boat. We are lucky to be able to choose when we use it and not to have to depend on a living from it. This was brought home today as despite the sunny weather it was a tad rough out to sea.
But first I failed to record the previous trip which briefly consisted of Karen Steve and Adrian plus Rolfe the German Shepherd  having a ...]]></description>

		<title>Dartmouth Fishing Bass &amp; Rough Sea&#8217;s</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Steve picked me up with the sun shining brightly so it promised to be at least a nice trip. Once the monthly checks were completed we left the mooring and headed towards the mouth of the Dart. When travelling to Brixham Steve said it looked rough out which was a surprise to me but sure enough it was decidedly lumpy as we heeded past the Mewstone.
We continue to be surprised at the sea keeping qualities of the boat and today's trip certainly was a good test with a large swell ...]]></description>

		<title>Navman Trackfish 6500 GPS satellite lost signal restored with WD40</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You may have read about our problem with our Navman GPS. Over the last three trips or so the time taken to acquire sufficient satellite's had been getting longer and longer until on the last trip .  Looking for some guidance (sorry) about the problem showed that our inability to secure satellite's, was not unusual! This sparked some debate about the way forward and if the fault was significant, whether we should replace it, and upgrade at the same time to either 3D or side scan sonar.
On one of the forums there was ...]]></description>
