First step to Cornwall

Joanna Spencer-Smith

Started bright & early with NE wind with not enough puff so we motored until 8:45 and popped up the sail and spinnaker. Wind was around 10kt and finally settled on coming from the east. We could have done with a couple more knots as we had to finish off the trip under motor to get here before town quay people stopped for the night. Approach to Dartmouth was daubed in the light from the sunset and we were herded in by a mass of dolphins. Arrived in darkness.
