| Soleis in Padstow. |
Departed at 4am to make the most of the tides around Landsend. However despite our best efforts the tides bore no resemblance to those shore in the forecasts and we ended up with 2kts on the nose and a northerly wind for a significant portion of the journey between Landsend and Padstow. So again it was to be motoring as the order of the day. As we approached Padstow the wind freshened and backed enabling us to sail at last. We arrived in plenty of time to wait for the Padstow harbour gates to open so enjoyed some glorious sailing with blue skies and a pleasant breeze. We tied up against the wall inside the harbour with sufficient warps to allow for a 1.5m rise and fall of tide. John Lofts leaves me in Padstow and Margaret has joined me while I wait for Tim Stapleton on Friday.
Longships light, sights along the way and Soleis enjoying the sun in Padstow.
