A civilised start time of 8:30 and I was round Beachy Head by 9:45.
The "Seven Sisters", just west of Beachy Head. |
Approaching Beachy Head |
The inshore route around Beachy Head - not as intimidating as Portland Bill but more impressive cliffs. |
Approaching Eastbourne |
Again winds were difficult and when I arrived off Rye the anchorage was very bumpy and I thought I would have to move closer in at 22:00 when the rising tide would permit, but that proved to be unnecessary.
Seaford-Rye. Hard work with changing winds. |
39.2 nautical miles over the ground in 9 hours. Winds 5 - 20 knots.
