The summer of 2017 officially starts for us the day the boat gets launched.
We arrived at the hangar at the appointed time, as did the Lake Agassi Marine crew and trailer.
The boat was ready to roll as they slip that huge trailer under her
They always make it look so simple. And before we know it it's on it's way.
But there are still a few boats left.
We take leave of her as she is coming down the road and head for the harbour to await her arrival.
Here she comes heading for the launch ramp.
She splashed down around 10:00 am.
She is afloat and I am quite happy with my new waterline.
We backed away from the launch ramp around 10:20.
As we approached Willow Island Point, it was getting a little rough.
Once we rounded the point, we were heading right into that strong south wind. I certainly don't like rough water, but we have been in a lot worse and we know she can handle it.
As we approached the beach, we started to pick up some protection from Tower Beach and the point beyond. Which made it a little more pleasant.
So, here we are safe and sound in Boundary Creek Marina.
I AM PLEASED, LET THE SUMMER BEGIN
