Went out this morning, there was obviously a shout on, Port St. Mary & Port Erin LBs working in concert, both came back into PSM with a trawler, ambulance on quay, then trawler departed again..

This is the Sugar Loaf, difficult to tell with the telephoto compression in the picture, but these rocks spike out of the sea about a hundred yards offshore - we have been the far side of them before now. There was a RIB at the base and divers in the water, so a veritable adventure playground. Parked up and watched for a while in fascination.

Before Mrs. Seagoon drove us back to Castletown. She really looks to be getting the hang of this Mobo driving business...

Approaching Castletown bay we saw Freebird and Drewstwos. Tried hailing him by the radio on our prearranged channel, but to no avail. Dunno if he noticed...

Another good day. Next door neighbour was asking when I'd take the boat out of the water - if this weather holds a little longer it's looking like November / December.
 
Sigh.

I presume Mrs seagoon was not drinking and driving. /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

Mind you, a beer can put out spag bol induced heart burn. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Noooo, that was Neddie's pint, I was just holding it for him while he was using the camera. I know drinking and driving is naughty, so I made sure I finished mine before I took over /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif.
