Waited for strong winds in North Sea to subside before leaving on Friday morning. Good sail across North Sea to Dover where easterly tide at 2.5kts made slow going. With strong winds forecasted we pushed on to Eastbourne. With bare poles and under motor we battled through 45kt gusts and big seas to Eastbourne. After getting some sleep we left early to complete the final 11 hours in sunshine arriving Chichester at 6pm. Strongest winds and biggest seas for me and Elfride.
