I take my hat off to you guys with what you have achieved, this is simply awesome! It's only when you see all the photos in these videos that you can really see the amount of work that has gone into rebuilding the boat. I guess it won't be long before an Orph' is lifted into her, will you be doing another test run in the yard or will you wait until Bute before pressing the start button?

I'd like to see a few starts and some running before we set off
Engine gremlins are the worst. Want all that sorted ahead of time.

'Gremlins' is such an appropriate word here - and is the title of Chapter 4 of the book 'With Campbell at Coniston'.

After August we could always send Mike to photograph committee meetings in Cumbria. That ought to get us to Progress 75 or so...

Cracking video team!
