...and so a new sailing season begins
The first difference is an obvious change of towing wheels. The Skoda Superb is a car of real character, nowhere near the quality of drive from the previous Mondeo, but plenty of grip and steel on the road and real quality in terms of build and plenty of toys.
As occasionally befits the need, it was worth paying to use the slip at Woolverstone since Easter Sunday organ playing duties prevented me reaching Pin Mill in time for the necessary High Water.
Launching was typically uncomplicated, the usual back-winching required to shift the boat towards the water. Once momentum was gained, she slipped gracefully into the sea.
The short trip from Woolverstone to the mooring, under motor, was 1.1nm.
Daisy II looking slightly isolated though, nonetheless comfortable back on her mooring.
