Seals, lifeboat and lifeboat house

Second sail of the season. A fairly strong and gusty SW wind. I got out to the point in a couple of tacks, took some photos of the newly restored exterior of the lifeboat house and then set off to far point. There were quite a few seals on the shore and in the sea. A lifeboat swung into the harbour briefly. I had a fast and slightly hairy broad reach back to the pit, a swift reach past the finishing race and managed to get up the cut in a couple of tacks.

View from inside the lifeboat house:

A lifeboat breezed in and quickly out again

There were a goodly number of seals

Speeding towards the lifeboat house

Caught on webcam going out...

...and coming in

I should have a GPS trace
