Tuesday, 11 aug. sailing north

Light rain this morning, so departure was delayed a while. Round-the-boat swim in 17,8 water seemed warmer than the rain. Odd. Rather wetter though. Large breakfast to pre-empt elevenses. Away at a leisurely ten am after the rain had blown through. Good sailing wind, 15 knots, but on the quarter, waves also, so we roll, and roll, and roll…….  Goal today is a natural harbour called Dannemark, about 30 nm north, which ought to be a suitable day’s sailing. Grey skies mean the end of the last few days’ sunshine, but the forecast for tomorrow is that summer will return. 

All’s well, from rolypolyJohn
