The Maiden Voyage!

Picked up the boat last Monday after a few delays - one of the navigating lights wasn't working so it needed to be checked. We were dying to get it out on the water and eventually launched it in the afternoon. The actual launch went smoothly (decided not to waste a bottle of champagne) and we spent about an hour and half going up and down Currumbin Creek with very big smiles on our faces!
Getting it out of the water is a different kettle of fish though. It's not easy getting it lined up so that it sits on the trailer perfectly but I'm sure, with a bit of practice, we'll get there.
Took the boat out again yesterday for the day, again on Currumbin Creek. Took the fishing gear and tried our luck at catching some fish. Well, I don't think there's any fish in Currumbin Creek. We came home with none. Better luck next time.
