It was an interesting trip. headed from Cowes and towards Dartmouth late morning on monday, the weather started nice and gradually got worse. Myself and Nat maintained watch at the upper helm as we could not use the autopilot, WE GOT VERY WET. The rest of the crew and the instructor stayed below and we had to bring the speed down to 16 knots. It was VERY rough for a phantom 38, we wished we were on our birchwood. We pulled into Dartmouth at about 1630 and had well deserved chips at the bright blue chippy.
Headed to Guernsey, again very rough and my crew (I was skipper) threatened to get out and walk so I had to divert to Weymouth. Weymouth to Cowes on Wednesday was great, sunny and flat-ish.

We did see you in the river ( We were on the passenger ferry at the time ) and you all looked pretty wet!! If you make it down here again, I hope you pick better conditions, next week looks pretty good and we shall probaly head down to Fowey. Maybe see you next trip.
