Having fully serviced the trailer a few weeks back .. put the tower back on the boat, when I removed the covers ... I am so glad I invested in a De-Humidifier a couple of years ago.

All perfectly dry, no smell of damp, no sign of any mould, nor even any dust layer..

Prop polished up & back on, battery back in the engine bay ............ all ready for first run this coming weekend ........... to early to tell if weather is suitable - but midday tides are ideal.
Forecast showing 14 mph winds - hope it drops as now keen to get for first run of the year., I'm sure it will be a tad chilly when I drop over the side in a wetsuit for SkySki run ... wife thinks I'm mad contemplating this.
