Lift-off  yesterday

The view from my cockpit this afternoon.

20-55hrs: I had the boat lifted for a survey - theory was it went back in this morning. Unfortunately the lifting keel is missing some plastic bits on which it runs - so the boat is resting on shore for a couple of weeks until the marina has time to lift it and inspect the keel fully. 

Today, yesterday and the day before were taken up with this, although not all the time. I managed to get very cold - to lie in the sun - to eat too much and to wander around. Upsetting - and probably expensive - but that is sailing for you - - .
