Lost in the Fog

Well, almost.
There was absolutely no wind on Saturday, but on Easter Sunday there was a reasonable North wind. The problem was that the visibility was pretty dreadful.
I set off tacking up the cut when the visibility was OK:

...then it rather closed in!

It was OK really. I got to far point but there were no seals! The wind was favourable for going right round the back and I contemplated trying to sail through the gap between the point and the new island but the tide was ebbing pretty fast and as it was early in the season thought discretion was the better part etc.
It was a good sail with a pleasant reach/run home:

Good Friday

Good Friday 2009 in North Norfolk was a cracking day. I had a sail in the carrot in the morning. The wind was 2-4 due South which meant a dead run out (not as hairy as it could have been as the tide had turned by the time I got in gear) and a beat back up the cut.

I don't think I was caught by the webcam, but you can see the race setting off - I followed them out about 10 minutes later:


M and I went on a mudstomp later and she got this thrilling pic of me checking Zephyr's mooring block!
