Worbarrow
Bay
The alarm was set fr
0450 to make an early start on the tide. This had to coordinate with a little
bit of light in the sky to negotiate all the lobster pots off Christchurch and
Hengistbury Head. Thankfully we didn't get hitched on one. This is more of a
concern for me (Ali) as I am designated "Ships Diver" (one of many titles)
and am usually despatched overboard to sort out the mess.
There was no wind so
we motored all the way to Worbarrow in the Purbecks for a 4 hour interlude to
await the favourable tide to round Portland Bill.
Derrick occupied
himself with little jobs whilst I experimented with watercolour pencils and
practiced the cello.A most profitable stopover!
