Adventures of a Sailor Girl is now in Cowes, Isle of Wight for the annual Cowes Week Regatta.

While the boats have been postponed on the dock for at least two hours in Cowes, was great to catch up with regular adventurer David 'Chappo' Chapman on his adventures over the past few months. He will be sailing in the Quarter Ton Class for Cowes Week!

More updates from Aberdeen Asset Management Cowes Week and the Fastnet over the coming days!
