Started with heavy wind pushing onto dock, but after a few tense moments managed to clear the boats and head for the lock. Upon leaving turned to port and headed up river under motor before turning round. Unfurled the headsail about 10% moving about 4 knots in 30-35 knot winds. Headed down river under sail to darnet. Turned round and headed up river back to the marina. Luckily on the final approach winds died down to roughly 10 knots which made entry into the lock much more pleasurable.
