Didn't make the island, Ellen McC will have to wait to be trashed until next year :)

Didn't make it, the wind was a continual W or WSW, and as we were heading from Sandwich, that meant on the nose. A lumpy sea meant that it was going to take 40hours to make the island, and arrive about 12 hours before the race.

So we bore of 70 degrees, and headed for Bolougne instead :(

( Incidentally making for a very easy channel crossing for the first time ! )

More pics and trip notes to follow when I get back.
