A gentle, sunny sail to Helford

Summer is here, for the moment! Bright sunshine and a very gentle breeze. So after showers and breakfast, Graham took part in another conference call to the Soil Association at 8.30 before we could stroll into Falmouth for some food shopping.

We left harbour at 12.30 for a very gentle sail towards the Helford River - we're talking less than 1 knot of boat speed! However we've picked up a visitors' mooring and had an lovely lunch in the cockpit. There are a few non-urgent boat jobs to be tackled sometime this afternoon, plus some navigation planning to be done. No rush, though; it's great just to relax and take in the view.
