In SW the dinghy the Swallows use is the Wizard. But in WD the Goblin’s dinghy is the Imp, a tiny black pram dinghy. What is a pram dinghy?
Could the Goblin go out to SW to drop the Swallows off with two dinghies in tow? That’s if they don’t leave the Imp tied to the buoy/mooring as suggested.
Of course, Frank (the boatman in WD) could row them back to the hard. Or they could moor the Goblin at the wharf or quay.
At the beginning of WD, Frank lends the Swallows a dinghy, and then rows Mother and Bridget out to the Goblin in another dinghy. At the end, Mother rows herself out to the Goblin.
At the end of CC, the Come Along tows home the Teasel plus the Titmouse in her disguise as a dinghy plus the Death & Glory. And the Margoletta’s dinghy too part of the way?
