The Kipper called today to tell me that potential crewman Steve E may not be able to make it along: we will have to wait and see if he can join us.  On a more positive note, The Kipper has sourced two new 110 amp hour domestic batteries for £100 each - reduced from £140.  Nothing on a boat comes cheap.  He tells me that he paid for them straight away just in case the cleaner had answered the phone and made a mistake.
