Why was the Solent empty, this fine Sunday afternoon?

You were a bit early as I sailed past at around 1700 in a very pleasant F2 breeze trying out my newly rigged gaff vang. Seeing how close I could nudge up to the wind. On the compass it looked as though I was tacking through 100 degrees which for a gaffer is not bad, but when I got back to mooring and checked the gps it was not as good as that!
It was a lovely evening all the better for loads of seaspace, Solent is bril when its empty
