As are all the good clubs

The feedback I have got today it would appear to be just a limited few

I like minister for silly walks (something like that) who said before the weekend that your front door was best defence against Coronavirus.

Still lots of sailing in the USA and angry idiots where they are not allowed. They are going to have to get serious and will remain in lockdown for months after the rest of the world.

I am told by a trusted friend that one of the clubs have stopped free sailing- led by the members themselves.

This is one of the issues, (sea sailing though), not very good PR.

Interested in how livaboard's are coping, if it was me I might be inclined to just stock up on food and water and bugger off somewhere as remote as possible for a couple of months.....

I would want to be near professional help, get your liveaboard yacht into one of the major ports.

I suppose it depends on how much contact you'd had with 'civilisation' during the previous couple of weeks. Maybe the best compromise would be a swinging mooring in a big city harbour but if you'd been sailing around the world you'd probably decide 'civilisation' was not a welcoming place for a while.....
