On Monday 5 September we received a message from Bradley Cane at Sandy Cove Boatyard requesting that we bring the Happy Return (HR) to Newlyn on the weekend of 10th/11th of September so that they can undertake the planned work on the deck.

This has two implications:-

1. We will need to clear the decks of all spares and deck boxes prior to work commencing.

2. The sailing program will go on hold, probable for the remainder of this month.

With this in mind, it is intended that all deck furniture will be removed from HR this Thursday morning, 8 September, commencing at 0930 in the wet dock. If you are free and able to help, kindly let Mark know. Weather permitting, we should be all done by about lunchtime.

In so far as the resumption of the sailing program is concerned, We will let you all know as soon as we can see the end in sight.
