So I’ve serviced the engine, trailer and fitted the gps/fishfinder ready for the maiden voyage and the damn weather has put an end to that this weekend. 60mph wind in August , what next.

I’m supposed to be putting to sea on a cruise ship and Saturday and looking at the wind I am not looking forward to it. Last time I was on one we had hurricane force winds.
Not a complete idiot - some parts are missing.

Chris
I understand your weather frustration. Here in Michigan on Lake Huron I had to put my boat away about 10 days ago. There has been an infestation of an evil white substance. Hopefully we can get rid of it in about 4 or 5 months.
