Light winds but managed to sail a few hours. Hoisted the stay sail for a couple hours and saw 7.5kts sailing. Few engine issues, ultimately a fuel filter issue, cleaned that outside DL and all better.

Pretty challenging conditions, force 6 on the nose most of the way. Slow progress to Selsey Bill then eased off a bit as we got into the Solent.

Very mixed bag of weather, mostly wind on the nose. Lot of motoring but when we did get sailing, she wizzed along. Pulled into Ramsgate for fuel and a breather. Onto Swanwick soon.

Bit spicy out but thought we’d try it. Safely in and out after a short sail in consistent 25+ knots.

Fairly light wind. Picked up a bit as we got past the rail bridge so reefed the main but died off again as we got towards Rosyth.

Bit of everything, weather wise. Sunny and no wind to start so motor sailed up to Blackness. Wind filled in a bit after that so up to a channel marker near Grangemouth and back. Warm but intermittent rain.

Little wind but picked up intermittently so got some sailing done.

Sailed up to Blackness and back. Started out full sail but had to reef not long in.

Accreditation session on Kittiwake, one of the PEYC club boats. Few tacks, gybes, and berthing. Lovely weather with decent wind. Number 3 jib, full main.
