Many thanks, Paul

I took this shot from one of my favourite places.
I saw the launch in steam when it was further away so waited till it got closer - then the captain decided to 'coast' and there was no steam !
At the last moment before the launch passed me the captain gave a boost of power so I grabbed the shot whilst I could !

In that case, well timed Peter!

Many thanks, Paul.

You can see from where I took this shot in my posting today 'Wagtails on the jetty' - I was right at the end of that jetty.
