The "Isles of Wight" as viewed from the Looe Channel

This was our first ever view of the Solent, in 1991, with an approaching depression that kept us in Yarmouth for several days. You can just see the forts.

Sunrise over the Isle of Wight

In spite of the fact that I am constitutionally averse to sunrises on the grounds that they only take place when I want to sleep, I have given you a like because I am in a generous mood today after someone kindly helped me getting my sail from boat to car.

It has dawned on me that on the few occasions I have dragged myself out of bunk to beat the tides I have sometimes managed to take photos of the sunrise. The first was somewhere between Ostend and England in '84 when a friend helped me home with my Mystere after we had been forced to leave it over there by weather. This was the only occasion we ever had to do this in forty years of foreign sailing.

Norderney, on our way west.

Our last ever foreign trip, Zeebrugge from Blankenberg at some unearthly hour. Actually, my last sight of Europe from the sea.
