Finally the day came that I and my boat were both ready to go on water. Today at 10:15AM local time she was driven from her dry storage space to be lifted and then put afloat.

It did not happen before I was summoned to the Capitainerie (Harbor Master Office) to pay all my bills; after one’s vessel is on the water one, and one’s collateral, are considered a flight risque , I guess. 🙂

9:30AM, still on the hard but all ready to go.

At the travel lift.

After a short, single handed trip to her new berth, here she is, in her element, on the water. Let’s hope, that now on, I’ll be in my element, too! Berthing happened with no hitch even though I was alone but weather was cooperating and her bow thruster made so much difference.
