50:36.82N 002:26.40W Today was a much nicer day though cold at times, we
were going to head for Beer near the river Axe to anchor for the night as the
best time to get round Portland Bill was not till 21.30 this evening, however
once we left Hall Sands we were able to contact Adrian and Jane on Blue Bird an
Oyster 39 we met in the Azores and who we have been messaging since we left,
they were behind us and today found them only 10 miles away when we spoke
on the VHF, Weymouth is their home port so they were heading straight for
Weymouth and we decided to head straight there too. We sailed slowly
reducing sail as the wind increased to arrive at a good time for the inshore
passage and got to Weymouth just before 10pm and anchored off the beach with
Blue Bird close by.. |
