Had the day off - never work on my birthday.
The good lady threw a sickie as a surprise & proposed a gentle sail - just the two of us.
What a woman! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
Little did I know it was so she could try to kill me. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif
Drove up to Levington - got the tender in the water - motored over - as we came alongside Guapa I tried to grab the bathing ladder - I missed - B. "tried" to be helpful - stood up & tried to grab it - tender went turtle /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
Lifejackets worked - gentle drift upriver.
An East Anglia Sea School boat spotted it - thought it would be a good moment to practise MOB - rescued us & dropped us off o/b Guapa.
Nothing/no-one damaged/hurt (apart from my pride) - but it could have been soo much worse. Thanks a bundle!!
Dried - changed - hot soup - bailed the tender & fiddled with outboard engine till it worked again. Motored back to SYH.
Whatever else we would have done today, it would have been boring compared to this. And it's only 17H00. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
