The evening 18th April l drove down to St Anthony, and l motored the dinghy up the creek to her and eased the bow lines and pulled her out of her winter berth into deeper water, down the side of the creek bank. Because of my the high pressure, 1026, it had pushed high tide down by quite a bit. And l was worried Elektra might be still aground when l came to move back down river to the sea.

Having done so, l was happier and decided to leave the dinghy tied to the shore of creek for quicker exit next day. So l walked back to St Anthony for the car to drive home.
