Actually looks like the delivery back looking at it now.
Almost 20 years later the bloke driving would be lifted off the sinking Midnight Special.

A slower world and great comradeship back then although must admit really enjoying solo sailing on my little boat these days. Just been kicked off daughters pontoon so leased a wet berth at Horizon Shores. Now 6m boat looks too small in 12 metre pen, damn ,perhaps something a bit bigger if it comes along.

My favorite cruising destination!
