Cape Greco again... trying out the davits


Off to Cape Greco again for the night. This time with the inflatable dinghy on the new davits. It rolled somewhat, because we had a couple of fenders to stop it being damaged by the bathing platform. We were the only people in Cape Greco, which surprised us somewhat. When we got back we used the spinnaker pole as a derrick and lifted it easily onto the foredeck. So easy, that in the future we'll take it that way. In the past we had manhandled it on and off the foredeck hence why we were trying the davits. The davits will be useful for just lifting it out of the way, but not for sailing for a day or longer.
