Well there you go, this is sailing.  I tried leaving our mooring at about 12.30, low water, to head for Helford River and promptly ran aground IN THE MARINA.  I was quickly passed the wally hat which had only just been earned by Rob.  The wind got up again and Gale 8 is forecast for later in Plymouth area and so all thought of crossing Channel given up for today. A jaunt into Falmouth is now the only option, perhaps the Maritime Museum.  We promise not to let Rob lead us astray into the bars.
Patience in spades called for!
