Peel To Milford haven

The tide height and direction led to a night departure. We slipped our moorings and headed to the fuel pontoon to fill up beer this 150mile leg. We could have been thinking we were tough adventurers at this point. But a young french couple with a boat half our size and 2 kids had left a bit earlier than us and were going straight to the Scilly isle another 100 miles further on.

Good wind for the first night and good progress too. Perfect little sail right down the middle of the Irish Sea. As the second night approached some tidal calcs were require to shimmy between the islands of Skoma and Grassholme in the dark. The confidants of a chart plotter making it a doddle.Meer informatie
