CS34 2020 Haulout

Got to the boat after 10pm last night.

The overnight low of 3 degrees C plus there was an east wind that was blowing through the companionway hatch louvers.  I put a towel over these louvers, but the Dysan plug in heater couldn't get the cabin warm.

I moved the heater into the V-birth and closed the doors before falling asleep in comfort.

Up at 7am, and it was still fairly dark:

Walked over to the club house to get checked in and get a hard hat.
Still Time is the 6th boat scheduled to come out.

The crane crews first took a couple of the docks out and put them on land before they got to lifting the first boat at 07:44am:

I went for a toot around the harbour!

Trip Odometer: 2.7 miles

I picked up Walter at our dock to come along for the ride:

We are after this boat:

Then onto land as the crane and crews got her ready for the lift:

Every year I am impressed with how the crane and crews do this!

Start of lift was 8:42, and they were removing the straps at 8:45!

I was back home by 9:30am.
