51 38.1N 008 42.6W Set off with Ed planning to get to Castletownsend 30
miles down the coast but a stiff south westerly right on the nose meant it
was hard going so decided to shorten and call in at Courtmacsherry for the
night. Very narrow channel with a strong tide and challenging to anchor off the
village. We were about to give up and anchor out in the bay when a
very helpful fisherman shouted over that we could use his mooring for the night
which was perfect even though still challenging to tie up to with 3-4 knots of
tide running. Very good dinner on board and Ed happy to be in
Ireland. None of us fancied a 6 hour bash to windward in a short sea - right
decision.
