Cruise Index

Late in 2025 and in anticipation of the web site disappearing at some point, probably in the fairly distant future, I have converted the cruise threads into PDF documents so that I'll have a continuing record, I have not made any significant edits or additions.

Until the 2019 JBC they are fairly brief and get quite long from 2020. The later ones can be somewhat easier to read as a PDF, but the links to slide shows did not carry over. Nor did the videos which is more significant from 2023/4 as I started taking more, for these the web version is to be preferred. 

Photographs (well over 7,000 including pictures of the boat and a few others) and most videos can be found in Flikr albums but without the links you have to find the appropriate album (assuming there is one), they are in the order loaded not taken but are clearly marked.

PDFs can be viewed on-line or downloaded. Either way should still work if on line. I may later put a few more links to Flickr for more videos but probably not for the slide shows because of the effort required and the likely hood of the Flickr library disappearing with the web site or before; with thousands of images it has to be paid for and with card storage at less than £10 per Tera Byte I now have multiple copies.

Summaries and links to blog threads can be found below these links or, for most, above this page.

WIP, and some proof reading required, especially on the 2025 threads, a job I leave till winter.

Most of the trips to Cornwall before August 2021 would have gone on to The Isles of Scilly if the weather had been kind!

Annual Statistics are here, statistics for most cruises are shown at the end of the relevant thread.
