September 24, return to the Orwell

Daisy II launched, amongst the dawn mist, onto the mud at Pin Mill

waiting for the tide...

Following last week's Drascombe rally, a 3.30am getaway helped me tow Daisy II back down to Pin Mill for the remainder of the season.  Once they started blowing, winds were pleasant F3 and southerly, which meant that I could keep all 3 sails up, unreefed.  The short sail had to be curtailed due to evening commitments back in Cambridge.  However it was all most definitely worth it.
6.6nm, Season's total 540.8nm
