A magical sail today, in perfect conditions. John and Dawn joined us today and a great time was had by all - saw a pod of about half a dozen dolphins - awesome! We experienced rather sudden wind changes but managed to keep on track with a few tacks thrown in expertly (yes, really!)
We had planned to anchor up for lunch but by then the wind was prohibitive with quite large whitecaps on the sea, so we headed back as everyone had had enough by then anyway.
John and Dawn kindly gave me permission to add a photo, so here they are above, enjoying the sail today. John did take a photo of Dawn and I, but somehow it came out as a blurry video! I also have to add that our 'parking' skills are improving - fenders didn't even get a workout today!
Also had a surprise at the marina, when Mike went to bring the communal hose over to wash Sirocco off - the hose was snagged on something and when he pulled it up, he found a cafe chair tangled up in the hose - obviously been there some time as it was covered in barnacles!
