Yesterday the weather forecast had shown there were only two days during this coming week when we would want to sail. Today is one of them. Not the best wind as it will come from directly behind the boat, and not quite strong enough at F3 to move us very fast. However better that than lumpy seas and heavy winds for a long journey.
So another early start at 6.00am. A bright clear sky and sun hot enough to causing a false horizon and mirages of floating islands of rock
During an uneventful journey we change from French to English time gaining an hour on our day. Its a seven hour passage and as we enter St Peter Port we stop at the fuel berth to top up on fuel before going into the marina.
We’re here for a couple of days at least, then there’s a bit of a lull in the winds on Thursday, no wind Friday, and very strong again on Saturday and Sunday. So if there’s no change in the forecast we shall come home on Thursday or Friday.
