Today we had to go on the rib to The Hamble to pick up the liferaft for Rowena, on the way the motor torpedo boat tried to race us! Paul was made up he got to go as fast as he could, I just shut my eyes and held on tight!

Paul has been working hard on Rowena, we now have oil and temperature gauges up top, so now more checking all the gauges every time you go downstairs. He has also fitted stop buttons so he can now stop Rowena from up top. Can't think why they where never fitted in the first place.

We are leaving here tomorrow, but will be back for Easter to try out Rowena, any volunteers for crew for then or the summer just call us, or we will be press ganging people again!
