Slotergracht (continued) - lift on

High winds finally abated today and it was possible to load Famille Dufour II aboard the Slotergracht. Regrettably I was not in attendance for the dramatic part of the lift.

 Dominion Diving's Dominion Phoenix was on hand to assist with rigging the slings.

The cat was gently lowered on to hatch covers and once in position was lashed down.

The ship sailed just after 1800 hrs.
