Nice morning, light wind, warm temp, thought we'd take our Sorg 15 Runabout WILLOW out for a bit. Dropped the lift, hmmm, we had to give her a shove to get clear of the cradle, tide was down pretty low. The cradle bunks need 10 inches and WILLOW draws 8 inches, not much water in the bay. We motored out for a few minutes and decided we should check the tide charts on our smartphone. Ooops, tide was still going out and would be down almost another foot over the next few hours. So we made a U turn and returned to the beach. Skipper stepped out and she used the bow line to walk WILLOW back out the the lift, pretty as you please. She did put her coffee cup down though. We gave WILLOW a tug and got her back on the bunks, raised the lift, headed off to launch the Penobscot.
