I saw the new seacat leave the harbour about half an hour ago so Im assuming all kicked off alright. I checked again...what seemed like only a few minutes later, and it was well across the channel and hardly visible, so I guess its a fast shifter.
I take my hat off to you Roger with the work you are doing trying to get visitors here..its a brave effort despite the terrible lonely planet type publicity weve had lately. Yourself and Nick make quite a team I reckon.
