Saint Peter Port to Herm, Guernsey
Left Herm just as the boat floated. Spotted dolphins just off Brehon. Slowed and got a closer look. Beautiful. Very sunny and warm with very little wind.

Herm to Saint Peter Port, Guernsey
A very warm day. Virtually no wind today. Arrived at Herm Harbour and very few boats here. Pulled up a mooring ball. Neap tides. The boat is sat on a bit of an angle due to large stones under the keels. Paid 10 quid donation for the overnight stay

Saint Peter Port to Herm, Guernsey
Lovely day in the beach. Scrubbed the underside. The wind instrument still keeps failing. Headed back home through the percee passage. Motored both ways today. Less jellyfish now. Soile had a nice swim. And Milly watched the UK Grand Prix while beading. An Arbor broke down and we offered help, but someone got there first to tow them.

Saint Peter Port to Herm, Guernsey
10-15kts NE wind. Low water at 1830 A really nice sail back from sark. Tide was strong despite neaps. Just let the tide take me to st martins point direction and as it slackened I the point of sail took me to refee. Held on GBA bouy outside QEIi waiting for the gate to drop. A nice relaxing day. Very warm in sark. Climbed the steps to La coupee.

Sark to Saint Peter Port, Guernsey
Tied to a mooring on the northern most ball inside Herm harbour. Had a nice relaxed night. Sat on the sand. Woke up a little rolly. Swell from SW. We were just outside the Lee of the harbour wall so not sheltered enough. Took Django ashore, tide was nearly high and landed the dinghy on the slip. Should have used the dinghy to lift the ketch but realised after I packed the dinghy away! Untied from the ball and then pulled the ketch in. Motored back to GCI. Lost another boat hook again. Possibly when the trident passed. Low voltage warnings on the wind instrument. Also wind instrument failed again this morning.
