Brilliant stuff. How long did it take? Hit any weather? I can imagine waves reaching the wheelhouse quite easily!
In a word, no!!
The worst bit was leaving Liverpool, there were waves breaking on the windows and I started having my doubts that I was really up for the trip.
After that, we were incredibly lucky. The trip took around 3 weeks with 3 days spent holed up in Neyland due to weather. Also, we ended up leaving the boat for a few days in North Wales because of another blow. Other than that, it was very calm.
Ramsey Sound and St Davids head overfalls were a but lumpy but no worse than that. Lands end, Portland, Dungeness, Dover and North Foreland were all glassy smooth!
Just wish I could experience weather conditions like that in my own boat!
