Last year on a trip . from St Vaast to Lymington I saw a 7bft in the forecast, it was short lived lasting only the one three hour period. Well despite setting off in dead calm 5 hrs later, mid channel, Winds between 35-42 Kts and rough seas kicked in and it was survival time. I decided I would never set out again, if there was a 7 or above in the forecast.

The plan was to move Watanga on Thursday but as you can see from the forecast it’s a bit fiesty.
trip cancelled rescheduled for Saturday
