Good luck Bob, we haven't gotten ours out of winter storage as of yet, but we need repairs on the trailer last I heard also... there was some talk of using it for Scouts this year, if so.... they better "get with it" on the repairs.

Thanks all!

Launch was at 1030 this morning and all went well. Spent the rest of the day rigging and getting the sail and canvas on. Filled the fresh water tanks, ops checked the water heater, cranked up the engine, cleaned and vacuumed.

I forgot my camera at home so no pics.

I do take a laptop cruising with me for my navigation software and will stay in touch while away if wireless is available.

Beth,

I launch from East Greenwich Yacht Club in East Greenwich, RI USA.

Bob

Hi Bob:  Nice to hear you had a great day.  I have friends in Warwick who also have a boat.  You need to remember that camera, though.  I think we'd all love to see some pics.
