Waited until the wind had dropped in the morning and then weighed anchor and motored out of the Kingsbridge Estuary.
As rounding the headland into the wind, motored into big lumpy swell that had the bow diving into the steep waves and Meg feeling sea sick. Then a rainy and cloudy sail that only cleared as approaching the River Yealm.
After picking up visitor mooring and chatting to the friendly Harbour Master, who was collecting fees, had lovely walk through oak wood lining the river banks and around the coast.
Leaving Salcombe.
Meg feeling a little sea sick :-(
Great Mewstone and Little Mewstone.
Approaching the dramatic entrance to the River Yealm.
Keeping close to the rocky edge of Misery Point to avoid the sand bar across the entrance.
Can you spot Arwen?
Inflated tender and rowed ashore to Kirkpatrick Steps.
The village of Noss Mayo.
19 nautical miles (beating into the wind and half way thought I’d have to tack but can see where the wind shifted in our favour!)
