Have been doing mostly day sails this year around Weymouth Bay but on Monday did 64 mile round trip from Weymouth to Poole Harbour with overnight on anchor in South Deep. Perfect winds; westerlies on the way there and easterlies on the way back. Maximum F4 with flat sea - perfect. Averaged nearly 6 knots with maximum speed of 8.2 knots.
Hoping to do Solent next week and hopefully week after as well before taking boat out of water at end of September.
