Tegwen to Tasmania - The Second Leg Preparations

Graham Giles and Stephen motored Tegwen up from Kettering to the Royal Yacht Club of Tasmania at Sandy Bay where we met up over lunch with Steve Knight, the other crew member for this leg. In the afternoon we were offered a lift into Peter Johnson's chandlery near Constitution Dock which we took advantage of to get a few bits and pieces. Taking the bus back to Sandy Bay shops we raided Woolworths for provisions then walked back to the yacht. With all the stores put away Tegwen had an engine oil change and impeller check and we were then all but ready for departure on the next leg Tegwen's Tasmanian adventure.
