it was a icy day and the van was frozen making my get away late.
arrived Swanage 0745. all the kit was packed onto the boat and wheeled on flatter tyres to be loaded onto the trailer. everything went well and the mast support was spot on for height. it did wobble a bit from side to side.
we finally made tracks around 10.30 heading for Wareham and Bournemouth on the main route out
the lighting board once again started playing up. Peter followed in his car
we arrived at Weston 1210, the sun was shinning and was a nice day.
it was faster unloading than loading. the boat was rigged and off the trailer by 1250.
time we sorted a few things we were all done by 14.00. for the time being im not using the stands as i will keep the laser at home. i now need to make a new boat box as the old on would not fit in the van.
the trip home did take a while as traffic qued on aprouch to Salisbury. eventualy getting home 1635.
