Ship in the Sky (Wishbone Ash)

Lift out of the yachts at the sailing club today. We started at 7 this morning, when it was icy on the decks. Sun shone and the north-easterly wind stayed light but cold. We finsihed the lifts on time at 5.15, exhausting fun.

I am a Stroppy Lady, which means I help put the slings on the yachts, attach tthem to the chains on the crane and we managed this on 32 boats. Here are some of our tools the crane driver said we were the best 'slingers' he had EVER worked with.

Nice shot & great song - might be seeing them in November in Frome.

[Richard Brown]

Not something you see every day! It would be fun to erase the slings :)
