We've been looking for a weather window all week, and it just isn't happening. Forecasts around or above the 20 knot mark abound, and all seem Westerly. With marina fees in Poole mounting, Paschall has (I think wisely) decided that a road trip is sensible.
We're going to drive down to the boat tomorrow and dismast her, and then truck her back to Cardiff on Saturday.
Now that the decision is made, and the lorry booked, no doubt a high pressure and associated Easterlies is a certainty.
Meantime, my first trip around Land's end will have to wait.
