19th May

A day of mixed progress. We hung around all morning to see if they could lift Imagine. Then shortly before noon they said let's go. She was hoisted without fuss although her sides got dirty. They then pressure washed her and went for lunch while I changed the anodes and serviced the propellers. It was obvious that one set of props were different from the other. I had a long conversation with the U.K. agent and we concluded that it probably wasn't catastrophic, which of course left the possibility that it could be. By the time we were back in the water the weather had turned miserable again and the boat, which Lucinda had cleaned yesterday, was dirty once more. At this point we gave up and sat inside reading.
