Thanks Daka for the r/v & RAS hand over in the Swash.


We anchored at Newtown and by 1600hrs the W was F4 and we were swinging all over the place - sunny but cool in the wind. No dragging but concerned at others who arrived during the afternoon and dropped their hooks whilst with way on. Usual Newtown stuff.


Lets see what tomorrowing dishes up.

Thanks again for the dongle thing

Really quite flat - the biggest wave was from the IOW ferry.

Not enuough sunscreen meant that I have gone pink (not a good colour).

Yes good catch - Unsure of the MOB ; SWMBO's antics with a boat hook are the stuff of legend.........


Anyway at least I haVe the equipmet to see who is honest!
