Channel crossing this weekend. Anyone else?

[peterandjeanette]

Start of the annual holiday this weekend. Aiming for a Channel crossing - probably Sunday - as the weather window arrives.
Departing West Solent for Cherbourg, initially for wines and overnight stop, then through the Race to St Helier - for fuel - and on to Brittany.
Gentle cruise at 22 - 24 kts.
Anyone else crossing Sunday?

as the weather window arrives.


What weather window is that then?

 

[peterandjeanette]

Any time it drops below F4 and it's not raining has to be a weather window.

Possibly, thinking of leaving Chichester Friday PM for Yarmouth for a couple of nights and then across on Sunday. Aiming for Guernsey rather than Cherbourg though.

Have been playing with Sunday AM too from Portsmouth to Cherbourg. Not fancying the weather much though as looking to return to Cowes by Wednesday.
