Launch 2007
We finally made it to launch on Saturday, May 12th at Port Credit Yacht club. Everything went very smoothly this year. We were booked to launch at 8:30am with a trip to the mast crane at 2pm. VICTURA was actually moved into the travel-lift at 4pm on Friday so we could do a few touch ups on the bottom paint where the boat sits on the cradle. On Saturday, we were launched just before 8:30 and were able to move over to the mast crane right away for stepping. By 9am we were in our slip with the mast up, ready to set things up. Lots of fiddling and one trip up the mast to tune at the spreaders. Thanks to PCYC Harbour staff, Peter Howells and Stuart Gray for all the assistance.
