Sail repair completed and we set off for Tobermory in the grey drizzle and
winds of around 18 knots. The mainsail would not exit the mast without
unnecessary persuasion, so after three attempts in differing configurations and
one eye on the western shores of Kerrera, twice dropping the sail on deck to
adjust the battens, we reluctantly returned to our mooring. Conclusion:
the repairs have now made the sail too fat to pass through the slot in the mast.
