Well i've been out the house since 9.45 this morning and just got in at 7.45. A pretty stressfull day but it all went sweet in the end 
The boat arrived at 1.15, and me and Allan set about unloading all the extra bits and pices i wasnt expecting to get with the boat, like a brand new Jabsco toilet to plumb in, insted of the porta potti, 2 covers, fender holders, the list goes on.... Reece came just after Allan left and gave me a hand to sand down the anodes which had antifoul on them..
Then 2 coats of polish instead of 3, i forgot how big the hulls are and my arms were aching...
Martin ( Codfather ) turned up with his new landrover ( beauty ), and Rob ( Easyfish ) turned up with his new camera ( Embarrasing ) and Deano with his wife and kids at 4.30 and we hitched the boat up and took it down and launched it, and i got it into the mooring first attempt
Then things got better, Geoff who has a cruiser in the marina, and wanted to buy my Explorer Elite, sold his cruiser this afternoon So a quick ride out and i was handed a cheque
All in all a great day and as all the lads said....there was nothing to worry about...
Thanks to the lads who helped out today, all them are on NESA...Martin ( Codfather ), Allan ( Endeavour 16 ), Reece, Rob ( Easyfish ), Deano ( Kingcod Deano ) and the marina staff....
