 rounding the 'Bill'
 Portland Bill
 The sailing from here to where we turned N for Lyme
Regis doesn't get any better - nor does life!
 even Peter stopped fiddling with the sump or
whatever he always had his head into!
 Go man go! (Lyme Bay)
 We did have to pump rather a lot od seawater
out ('or 'permp' as Peter called it)
We later turned in towards Lyme Regis for
shelter as the weather turned foul and the starin on the yacht was too
great to maintain course to Torquay.
