Waiting for the Tide was an Editor's section in Practical Boat Owner and might well still be so, either way it seemed a good title for these pictures of the Flugal looking shipshape and pristene, ready for the season.
Flugal is local boatbuilder Greg's very quick Memory sloop, seen here on the marine railway at the Pink Ferry workshop on Hamble, one of the few remaining traditional working boat yards on the river.
