After going "through the back of the wardrobe" at Selsey Bill, the weather gods decided to play games. While most of the UK sweltered, it turned chilly and the mist thickened. We kept a lookout for sea monsters and as we approached Shoreham we motored into a pea-souper. No viz, but we got one over the weather gods. We knew we had won that battle when the fog lifted as soon as we had tied up. They can't defeat us. Ha ha! Another scorching afternoon and Jean's ...

Chilly, very poor viz. Had a good 15 minute sail on approach to Selsey Bill. About to go thru the wardrobe....Argh...

It's balmy! Left as planned but had to motor the whole way due to lack of wind. Good spring tide sped us on our way, 10 knots thru Hurst. Moored at WOYAL Clarence Marina with a good the view of the Spinnaker tower. Same alarm and departure time tomorrow..........heading for Selsey Bill...what will be beyond?? Am convinced it'll be like going thru the back of the wardrobe. Hope to be in touch tomoz.....

White Satin now ready for her big adventure.... Setting off a day earlier than planned as weather for the weekend might cost us a day or two. Alarms set for 05.15. 06.00 departure planned.

White Satin re-fueled, picture shows John hard at work giving her bottom a good scrub to help speed us on our way.
