Fate let us off, for once!

We had just the most fantastic sail up the Wallet. F4 broad reach. One gybe at Wallet no 4 and all the way to the Harwich shelf cardinal.

Hardened up into the Stour at slack water and had a jolly good beat up under reefed main and no 1 jib. Fine dinner of steak, mushrooms and tomatoes and then a little light carousing at Pete and Sarah's beach house.
