All systems go!

Just read the report from the survey and it all looks good. The surveyor (Steve Hand) has listed some minor problems but the boat is in great nick so its all systems go. Jobs done yesterday:
1. Sorted mooring at Shardlow Marina. I called in last week and told them my situation so the put the last 45ft mooring on hold for me until the boat had been surveyed. The mooring is on the far side of the marina by the river so will be quiet, but still close enough to the Old Marina Bar to stagger (more in the bar later).
2. Phoned ABNB and Dave the boat owner to sort out completion date. Not that simple as Dave and his wife return to Spain at the end of Aug and we need to arrange 3 days to get the boat back to Shardlow. The plan is to complete on Friday or next Monday which gives we a few days to ensure we have everything we need on the boat before our first trip the Shardlow the following Friday.
Things to do today:
1. Go to bank and sort money transfer
2. Sort out boat insurance to start Friday
