Well 'Sarah' has now been extracted from the sea and now safely on the hard, so no more sailing on my boat till next year 
(If you see me thumbing a lift at the waterside, be nice and pick me up! 
)
What was interesting (and a touch annoying) was that my boat has been in the water for about 2 years without a single scrub and there was fairly minimal slime and barnacle growth on the hull. However, the rudder which I antifouled earlier in the year with some XM stuff (after a bit of maintenance) was riddled with weed.
The mast is down so I have plenty of time to fit an additional block for my Spinnaker but first job is to get that damn Honda 4-Stroke off the boat to give it a service. Now that is gonna be fun. (I use the term lightly)
