<div>Hi Alan,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I completed the trailer yesterday.  So i need to now arrange the crane to lift it out of the shed onto the trailer.  But i am away next week on holiday so that is going to delay me a week.  But after that.  I have arranged to use a local quarry which is fresh water for an initial dip test.  I dont think the slipway is deep enough for a full launch but at least i can test most of the seals before putting it in the sea.  If it leaks, i would much prefer fresh water inside than seawater.  So i expect to be in the water in 3 weeks max.</div>

<div>Kind Regards</div>
<div>James</div>
