First Sail of the year

Well, it was worth keeping the carrot on the boatpark - I finally got a winter sail! The weather was OK (wind 2-3 SW, temp above freezing) and the tide was OK 8.4m, high at around 8:45. I saw no other sailing boats but there were a couple of rowing boats and a small motor boat. The wind was fine to get to the lifeboat house but I didn't fancy going to far point. It was really strange seeing the pit with so few boats - just a sea of buoys. And flocks of birds, mainly geese

Here's one of M's photos:

And I even got snapped by the webcam:
