'New' boat launched!

[NickRobinson]

Boat launched! Rivendell our Mirage 2700 took to the water at 4.30 at Borth and is now bobbing about on the top of the tide off Abderdovey on a mooring. All seems well at the moment- overnight here then possibly a sail to Aberystwyth tomorrow or Sunday

And the sun is shining.....

Congratulations, after that inital worry comes the joy!

Isn't that the wrong way round? I thought that it should read, 'after all that initial joy comes the worry?'

Sounds like a great start to your new relationship. Happy sailing.

Thanks for the nice comments...

We overnighted at Aberdovey and were in a quandary weather wise... Aberystwyth? Pwllheli? Or stay put on a swinging mooring...

Forecast had strong wind warning 'later'.

Decided to go for Pwllheli as better access and ended motor sailing with sun block on....

Not much has dropped of the new boat, just left half a boat hook at Aberdovey...

Oh.. it steers backwards!
