10th april 2010


weather for the weekend was predicted to be nice and sunny and an easterly wind.
when we launched we decided to go off in the poole bar bouy direction as richard had never been there before. when we wee almost out of the bay the wind dropped and the sea was like a mirror.
we had a joke about and i said well the wind is picking up in the afternoon. we eventually got back into the bay and close to shore. we hailed a speedboat over and asked for a tow to the pier, they kindly obliged and we had a good chat to them whilst being towed. when they released us there was a bit more wind, and after we packed the boat away the wind filled in, typical. i did say it would in the afternoon and i was right.
after having problems with the launch wheels i decided eventually not to sail on the sunday. however i did stop overnight and see the sunrise over the isle of wight early morning.
