Departed Lymington at 0500. Weather calm with little wind but managed to achieve 8.2kts with the tidal stream. Sangelai now secure in her new home port Chichester Marina.

Tom Teichmann - Are you by any chance delivering Sangelai to her new port of domicile, Bob? What's your final destination? Tom.

Dense fog for the last 4 hrs, less than 40 metres visibility. Electronic Chart and AIS were immensely useful. Called Poole Harbour (VTS) on VHF before entering harbour. No movements reported and received clearance to enter. Near miss with the chain ferry who chose not to wait for us to pass knowing that we couldn't see them but they could see us on AIS.

F6 from the North and single handed with all sails up made for an interesting passage with occasional speed over the ground greater than 6kts. Broad Reach with about 1m swell behind me provided a roller coaster passage.
