Is the rudder jammed then? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
Come out of Bridgemarsh heading 060 should get you all the way, no wonder you aren't staying in Bradwell if you cant turn left.....

Forecast looks like NEly 5. Might be hard work getting there from Blackwater but great coming back!
Think I may try something more gentle for my shakedown at the weekend - Brightlingsea to Pyefleet maybe! Or if feeling adventurous West Mersea.

Winds mainly NE 18-25 (F5-F6) but gusting 25-30kt (F6-F7) on exposed eastern coasts.
Definately Pyefleet! To early in season to be exposed and Gentlemen never sail to windward - but am I a gentleman!

Are you sure?
I reckon 060 out of Bridgemarsh would put you on the 9th tee of Creeksea golf course.

Ah, but are you doing it True or Magnetic, and have you accounted for the sea searcher magnet in my pocket?

Damn, hadn't allowed for that.
Is your boat named after the antics of the ooslam bird?

Are you calling SWMBO an ooslam bird? And her antics are an entirely private matter. Ahem.

I'm out from tonight till monday afternoon completing a coastal skipper course. Looks like it could be exciting out there! We're starting from Harwich so might see you whizzing by.

Sorted the rudder (!!!!!!) and made it round to Bradwell so didnt make Harwich in the end, but yes it was lumpy out there. Met FullCircle (many thanks Jim!) and Trevera25 which was great. Now resident at Bradwell and very much looking forward to the season.
