We had good to fair visibility, winds mainly easterly 20 to 25kts with gust of 30kts. Surfing down waves at just over 10kts. After passing Bembridge, 219degrees gets you just about to the entrance of Braye. We steered to avoid two container ships & saw many more. Only saw on yacht, very early on & they turned west along the southern coast of IOW. We picked up a guest mooring buoy in the NE corner of the harbour but the wind has whistled all night & the swell rocked & rolled us as well. Heading to Sark Tuesday morning.

Early start. Slipped on time . Needles was lumpy and wind stayed solidly in the SW. ended up motor sailing most of the way. Lost a bit of time early on which had knock on of making us late down little Russell. Thought we might have had to anchor as tide appeared to be going against us, but then it went slack and made it in in nick of time. Kind berthing master bought us inside and we parked stern in s/b side too
