"As a final event for the weekend Woody exercised his vocabulary
somewhat upon arrival at his berth in Weymouth when he saw that
someone else was moored there."

Bugger, I missed an event........

And how did the lift break if Mr Burchett wasn't there?

It was like that when I found it...honest!

The platform had flipped over in the rough sea and there was no way
anyone could have gone underneath it and flipped it back with the boat
pitching and rolling the way it was. So we discovered that you can be
raised up on the thin bracket at the back, as long as the people on
board grab you and pull you on to the deck as soon as you're high
enough. Woody needs to modify it so that the platform can be locked
down...oh and get a back up ladder maybe!

Oh.. and thanks for all the help getting me on after all the deco
clearing my aladin (vr3 was broken!)

btw. Woody was very impressed with everyone mucking in to help get
people back onto the boat.. he said that some of his other customers
get on board and ignore anyone else struggling to get back on, etc.
So, consider yourselves praised! and he didn't even swear when he said
it :lol:
