Hamble-le-Rice to St. Helens, United Kingdom
Sally Cinnamon
Beneteau First 211
Close hauled the whole way, needed to wait for the tide to get into the harbour.
Sally C and crew in their happy place. Consistent SOG of 6+ knots all the way across the Solent on flat water. Bembridge is tricky to find. Look out for the old stone watch tower building just by the entrance (and remember it’s on a shallow stony bank). Current shallowest depth at the entrance is on the harbour website. Very nice welcome - staff took our lines and helped us into a snug finger berth. Another warm welcome at Brading Haven Yacht Club where we stopped for lunch.
