Please note she is actually at the bottom of Pook Lane... swamped and bit bedraggled, oars present; flooring supports broken, but the hull looks sound... tough old boat! will need hand pumps.

If we want to trailer her out it would have to be via Pook Lane...

I am working in The Skiff Factory this morning... but will come back for 12.00

...and Daphne's pumps helped pump out the water!

For information -since no on e else has posted (yet) ----Mabel* is now on her trailer at Colin's.
-and the Bosun is even more GrXXXY than usual, 'cos he can see lots of 'oles - mostly where they shouldn't be!

* was Mabel grumpy at not being blest yesterday? Is that why she went walkabout??!
    -or was it related to the magic number 977 ?

To be accurate the work was all done by Christine and Marcus before Daphne and team got there, and her pumps were not needed.
