Love the pic of Toby.  Went to the Army Navy and have been in bed ever since - flu or COVID no answer yet from medics.  I would have done something by now but hoping for a trip to Fowey this weekend if I ever get out of bed!

Nice breeze cruising at 6knots in a good gust.  
Rafted to friends at Cellar beach for coffee while Toby had a paddleboard. 
Thought we were going to be boarded by pirates but Toby fended them off with his water gun.  BZ for him.  🔫💪🏴‍☠️
Zoe practiced tacking, great effort and good learning but more practice needed.  Haha.   

Beautiful sunshine Temp 20+
Sea state consistently calm. 
Toby amazing on the Helm was amazing.
Zoe was great today helming and getting around the boat.  
Grandad John was great company.
Anchored in Cawsand bay before returning to mooring.  Return passage without need for a Tack.  

Cawsand for first Tipple

Mistral 

Didn’t you do well, better wind offshore I suspect.  Now ready for the season

Light winds
Variable sea state, calming throughout the afternoon.  
Darcey calm and helpful 
Toby more involved and finding the fun in sailing
Zoe felt the conditions a bit.  
Mistral performed well

Maiden 2025 family run out

Calm away from anchor.
Turned to the south and motored against an easterly wind, attempted to use shelter across the wind to then head into wind to reduce water across the deck. 
Crossed the sound into the easterly. 
Pleased engine had a good run in comfortable at 5kn into the wind.  
Took mooring at Mountbatten B04 first time sailing solo.
