They've got a shiny new travel hoist. Wise 40t radio controlled. I can hardly contain myself!

I don't believe it. Does this also mean the sun will shine from april to october? Some good news at last in Dunstaffnage.

Its radio contolled so that they can sit in the hut and work it rather than go out in the rain.

Afriend tells me the bad news is it's too tall to fit in the shed. Surely not? He also mentioned that it's too wide for the slip, but I notice it's the sort that can get slimmer or fatter hydraulically so it's perhaps only the really big boats that won't fit.

Does that mean they can move really big boats round the yard but can't launch them?

You can launch anything ... if you've got enough propellant!
