Weather has improved, it only feels like autumn and not winter! We sailed this afternoon to Blyth with the new crew in a slight sea and wind on the beam. All the sails were hoisted and we made up to 8 knots getting to Blyth in under 3 hours. Dinner in the royal Northumberland Yacht club. This was the cheapest meal to date with main course all under £5. The club is in an old barge very similar to the Mary Mouse in Portsmouth. Tomorrow hoping to go to Whitby.
