Monday 20 July Rain  showers, but good wind, so sail thro tricky passage, go for brief free sail and arrive Roscoff marina  6NM

 

Rain showers, but favourable wind, at last. Stick in 2 reef, set off near HW to sail E thro tricky narrow passage between Roscoff and Ile de Batz. Instead of heading S for Roscoff marina, head N for quick reach out to sea and back so Simon and Michelle can say they have actually had a sail whilst onboard. Arrive marina in time for lunch, and for S&M to get the afternoon ferry back to Plymouth. Get free bus circulating town to SM. Evening explore/beer in town. Still thick drizzle. Jamie arrives on morning ferry from Plymouth to help with D`fly`s final cross channel. Jane thinking of getting same ferry back to Plymouth if weather doesn`t improve.
