Happy Sailors

The reduction in lockdown means sailors can go to sea and the yachts in Emsworth have been lifted into the sea after 17 months ashore.

For the first time in years I wasn't a volunteer stroppy, attaching the straps to the crane, lockdown rules prevented that!

To see how close those swans were to me in top left photo, Sue got a good photo !!

There's a lot of trust being put in those straps. The collage tells a nice story.

They'll be itching to be out on the water after 17 months ashore. Lovely collage to mark the occasion .
