\"Port of Call\" - here\'s to you!

From a restaurant window, we saw this boat enter Calais today in sunshine but fairly fierce swell which forced even the ferries to do their manoevres outside the harbour. It seemed quite a blimmin trip, with white horses across the channel from the NE and treacherous entry cause the boat to disappear "beneath" waves even from a raised position and even when fairly well inside the entrance. Broomy style 38-45 footish aft cabin boat, blue canvas, rigid dinghy.

Went Dover - Calais on the ferry on Saturday and wouldn't have fancied it in Odyssea.

So whoever managed in must have big brass ones or no idea what a forecast is ;-)

Prob a certain highly sought after burgee smoothed the sea a bit as he went along.

politically correct and proud of it
