She FLOATS!! Two weeks ago Dannick was refloated and set back into her bearth in Muiden. While she was on dryland I polished the heck out of her so you need to wear sunglasses as not to be blinded by her shiny topsides.
I have mouted all her sails and have made everything in order for the first real trip of the season. All her provisions have been restocked so there is plenty of booze and today I have filled her diesel tanks.
The weather for the trip looks alright. We are leaving in the evening of the 30th and there is a low forcast just over the UK with strong winds near landsend. Hope they stay there. Further up the channel at the height of our crossing, winds of around 15-23 knots are forcast. Lets hope the waives are low. It looks a bit rainy but that's not going to stop us. This is the GRIB file for the 30th at 18.00 hours:
