It was the usual scenario. Get up, get off the pontoon and onto our mooring, go home.
We didn't even bother bother with the outboard on the tender today, rowing did the trick as it was slack water even though it was an hour before the tide was due to turn
The long period of slack water might have had something to do with the very high spring tides. That did pose us a small problem to wit a lack of water in the vicinity of where we stow our tender
Carrying the RIB is a bit much so we managed to drag it onto a marina trolley
That did the trick. We are picking up some scratches and gouges on the bottom though which will bear watching. Might need to add some keel band to protect the vulnerable spots
The journey home was uneventful and now it's back to the daily grind - but not, perhaps, for too much longer. Watch this space!
