would have loved to have been there, unfortunately we launched this morning, and broke down about a mile from the marina...

Ah, at work on Saturday Fred, hence the reason for your "good" weather!
You going to the Margit airshow?
We are leaving on the Friday before and returning on Monday, if we manage to avoid any Hurricanes or Sea Serpents etc.
