Having closed our figure 8 off The Lizard we were
poised to go into Falmouth for refuelling and a short rest. One final forecast
to confirm showed wind was now expected for the duration of the voyage to
Brighton, so we carried on regardless. Needless to say the wind has been lighter
than that forecast, but we still hope to arrive overnight 9/10
July.
After negotiating our way across the shipping
lanes, first sight of land is Bolt Head, near Salcombe, which brings back
several memories of dive trips in the 90s.
