Good Sailing conditions. NW F4-5 backing SW dropping later. Unfortunately the crew didn’t manage to get to Flair IV in time to enable us to sail, as far as we had hoped, along the North Coast of Anglesey to check out the Viking Festival at Amlwch. However we still had sufficient time with the flood tide to get to Cemaes in some good sailing conditions NW 4-5 backing SW later. We were concerned as to how few sea birds we saw but we understand this may have been due to them having fledged and all gone out to sea. 
We did see a couple of harbour porpoises off the coast around Wylfa. 
Rounding into the bay at Cemaes we headed up under the cliffs and dropped the anchor close to the shoreline in quite deep water allowing us to drop back to a convenient position in shelter for lunch. 
On the return trip we had lovely flat seas and made good speed through to a point sufficiently West of Carmel Head to avoid the eddy close to the shore to make our turn to the end of the breakwater. 
Although we lost the wind as we entered the New Harbour it was a great sail in some lovely conditions


Cruise to Cemaes Bay for lunch and return
