End of voyage round up and presentation of certificates.

I am always one for doing things quietly and had made no mention to the crew that this was my last voyage, so was rather bowled over when a voyage certificate and card (signed by all onboard) was presented for the trip. Followed very rapidly by a cake to celebrate my eight years of volunteering! Ahh, that was reason why I had that wee trip in the electric boat. Rather red faced I was not allowed to slip quietly back into the shadows.

1500 hrs
Following lunch and getting Prolific ready for the next trip. Ironically, the same trip Adult Voyage for budding volinteers as I took many years before. I packed my kit, gave all the sea staff a big OYT hug and headed for the car and the drive back to Devon. ready for the next trip.
