Back to Glasson

Today was our last full day on Tenacity. It was not the most exciting (Tuesday was the most exciting for me when we sailed across to Peil) but still fun as every day has been.

We woke up to a bright blue sky with the sun shining down on us. Mary and Colin said it would be a great day for activities on the water. We decided to take it easy for the first part of the morning and did some reading and fishing. We then all took driving lessons in the dinghy (more like a collision course) around the buoys at Peil Island. We had lunch which was scrummy hot dogs. We then got the engine started and set sail for Fleetwood.

We were sailing in the sun but also blustery winds which sent sea spray over the whole crew. The journey took a bit longer as the wind dropped and after 3 hours we reached the place to anchor for dinner. After the best meal of week of fish and homemade chips we set off again and motored around to Glasson where we are now moored in the lower basin. In the morning we will have a short trip through the lock to our marina berth.

This week has been a great experience and I hope I will have the chance to come on the boat again.
