Ardfern to Home 14.3 miles logged
Tuesday was another lovely morning, initially with no wind but once again a
favourable tide we headed up the Sound of Jura picking up a lovely breeze off
the Sound of Islay for another glorious sail to Ardfern where we topped up the
diesel tanks.
Due to mismanagement we ended up with Irish green diesel in the port tank
and red diesel in the starboard tank!
Leaving Ardfern we headed for home.
An enjoyable cruise over 6 weeks with 925 miles logged but we had planned
to spend another month on the West. Early on the weather was bright but cold but
the strong winds and big seas on the West Coast curtailed our plans to explore
some more anchorages.
We can always go back to enjoy more of the Irish scenery and
hospitality! |
