2026v02 Polkerris to Plymouth

Nevil Adkins

Awoke to flat calm in the bay but a wind line just half a kilometre away. Got under way just before 10am and again had to take a long tack out to sea to gain sea room. After tacking the wind veered as expected and we made better progress along the coast and just squeezed in past Rame Head without needing another pair of tacks. We were again buzzed by dolphins - every day this trip 🙂. Getting Destiny tied up in her berth was tricky with the strong easterly wind - I need to think how to get over that. James helped get Destiny's sails off her ready for new standing rigging next week - thanks for that👍. All-in-all a very enjoyable weekend trip.
