It might not be Scotland

As Kirsty has already said, we're finally away from our berth. And while Cowes might not be the most scenic place, but with a northerly force 7 forecast it made a lot of sense to be tied to a sheltered pontoon, rather than lying at anchor with little room if thing go wrong, both Beaulieu and Newtown creek will turn into lee shores later, so if we were to drag we'd have little time to sort our selves out. The moorings in those two places were probably taken before mid day.

The tide was going the wrong way for Chichester, so Cowes it was.
