Looks like we'll have to give it a miss, I'm still waiting for a new fuel pump to be fitted, so she'll not be ready to go back in until Saturday morning at this rate and I'm not risking the first run to be right across the channel. 7 weeks encounting we've been in the yard out on the trailer now

Tell me about it !!! Last weekend was annoying to say the least, watching everyone else ripping round the bay & channel in the sunshine on a millpond. I've not seen it that flat for nearly a year

Let's hope the weather stays sunny and calm for a while

Extragreen went back in the water this afternoon so first cruise will be up to Bristol on Saturday.

By the way Portishead yard staff were excellent, could not do enough to help and very patient.

Meant to put this on the Bristol Weekend post so will put it there now.
