Beneteau Oceanis 361
Left Chichester about 8pm raising main in harbour. With little wind motored to Dover doing watches of 3 hours. Very bright moon on first night. leaving Dover about 4pm wind picked up over night to consistent 20-25kts, came down to reef 2 and furled third of head sail, needed to motor last few hours into port due to wind direction. treated to lunar eclipse as we sailed up the canal.
