Alastor herself

• aft.jpg Cockpit looking aft
• aft2.jpg Deck looking aft - bicycle, swim ladder, solar cell on coachroof, and the infamous VW Beetle rear-window set in the dodger.
• books.jpg The bookshelf. Framed print is the original "Alastor", a commercial sailing vessel owned by some cousins in the last century.
• bows.jpg The bows - anchor locker, roller jib, windsurfer mast on deck.
• chart.jpg Chart table with perpetual clutter, Peltier (electric) icebox, old radio, Loran C, old echo sounder, MHD log.
