July 24th - School's out, at last... time to return to Pin Mill

I'm having a first go at blogging directly from the boat with a new iPad...
...brought Daisy II down to Pin Mill this afternoon. Launched from the slipway opposite the boatyard an hour before high tide. Had a pleasant sail to the Orwell Bridge, and back. Followed this with fish and chips from a dodgy take away in Ipswich. The plan is to sleep aboard tonight, and then return home tomorrow.

Plans for a summer cruise, starting on 28th July beginning to take shape. Just need the weather to play fair...

Postscript:
9.4nm, Season's total 266.5nm.
Red track shows Sunday evening sail (wind F3 south easterly).  Green track shows an early morning sail on Monday in a v. light north westerly breeze, tacking against wind and tide.
