Just after midnight, we slip our mooring and depart Dittisham towards the entrance to the River Dart. The storm has blown through although the sea is still choppy. With a decent breeze behind us, we make the tidal gate at Portland Bill and are abeam the Needles by 1400. We're back in the Beaulieu River by 1630 and the sun is shining again. But after 950 miles there's no time to relax as we have to change over from cruising mode to racing mode for the British Classic Yacht Regatta which starts tomorrow.Once most of the jobs are done, we relax with a well earned G&T in the cockpit and have a simple supper of pasta and tomato sauce.
