Kev Robinson

Gusts of 26 knots, low visibility due to mist and had rain later in the afternoon. Sea state was slight. Departed Gosport with a single reef in the main and had a lunch stop on a bouy in Newtown River. Departed Newtown River on 2 reefs due to increased wind and sailed with a much reduced furled Jib. Was a great days sailing and everyone was well fed and watered. Mooring cost was £36.00

Awesome following of aircraft carrier into Portsmouth the fire hoses and overhead displays

Left in pitch black. Lovely sunrise then sun. Bit of a squall then fog. Did well over 10 knots SOG! St Vaast v pretty typical small Normandy fishing village with sill
