maiden voyage

This is the moment, launching my Hobie cat at Ngaroto. I have worked on it throughout last winter. It was parked on my front lawn since May 2015. I had some nasty surprises and learned quite a lot about catamarans. I also googled and watched some videos on You Tube posted by the manufacturer and also Hobie owners in Australia.

The catamaran is sitting on four rollers of its trailer. If I untie the ropes, would it just roll off into the lake by itself? I will find out soon enough.
