The Sailing Edge -My first Journey

In this episode I take my newly purchased Hunter Legend out for her first proper run from Gosport with one crew, late-summer sunshine, and the confidence of someone who has definitely watched at least three YouTube tutorials. It’s my first real chance to see what this boat can do — and what I can get away with.

I loved every second, even the bits where I clearly made it harder than it needed to be. Consider this a very real look at learning a new boat: small wins, avoidable mistakes, and a few moments where I pretended everything was intentional.

In this episode:

First outing on the Hunter Legend (powered by enthusiasm)

A marina exit that was… fine. Mostly.

Several “learning opportunities” disguised as mistakes

Meeting large boats and ferries and passing them on the wrong side of the channel-not once but three times!

Honest first impressions after getting her moving properly

If you enjoy sailing content with humour, honesty, and zero ego, welcome aboard. More adventures — and more accidental lessons — coming soon.
