My fears about the trailer coupling were unfounded. Today I had no trouble in linking the trailer to the car, but I noted that it lacked a security chain, which I believe is mandatory. Therefore I’ll rectify the matter and purchase one at the same time as I buy a lighting board. Attaching the board to the stern of the boat should be easy, because I can make a fitting that will latch onto her skeg.

I tried a couple of straps for securing the boat to her trailer, and they worked well. In fact, apart from the lighting board, I’m ready to take ‘Talitha’ for her first sail. I shall be looking for suitable weather on a day when I shall be free for the sail.
