Tides strong along this part of the coast and still light winds, so early start at 4am to take the tide north and get to Greystones late morning before turns and start getting carried back.
Carefully motored out of tiny marina in the dark into the Avoca River and then out to the sea which soon lit by pre-dawn along horizon. Venus, Mars and Jupiter shining brightly as the other stars faded.
As passed headland remembered reading that mackerel like this kind of coast and saw fishing boats so fixed the broken mackerel line and trailed and soon caught lunch!
Then afternoon explore along cliff path out of Greystones towards Bray. Early night and think will sleep well tonight!
Venus!
