The Beauchamp arms was reached without incident... and on the return leg, Eleri did a LOT of the helming whilst daddy messed around taking photos.

Two days after launching we drove over to check that Snowgoose was still afloat... and got a little carried away!

Our car was in for an MOT on launch day... but Rowan and Jane's Pajero got us to Brundall, launching from the slipway proved uneventful and before long we were sailing past Langley Dyke.
