Leg 5 Passage 1

Nigel Nomad

Left Milford Marina at 4:30 to catch the favourable tides for Ireland. Wind of 6 to 10 knots from astern, but with just our big blue sail for most of the trip we made good speed. The sea state was pleasantly charm after our previous passage. Saw a whale spout about a mile away. As you can see in the pictures the new crew had to work really hard on the passage. Enjoyed Fish and chips from the chip shop just outside Kilmore marina.
