160314 Poole bar bouy and back

another sunny day was forecast. west 12mph.
launched at 0910. and headed straigh out of the bay. poole bar bouy was on the cards again.
we wanted to see the chalk cliff falls again and seen more evidence of more falls.
we struggled to get out the bay and eventually got going and made studland bay from a run to a beat.
we got there in 47m which wasnt bad. going back was more wind and again hit a soft patch.
when we got into  the bay richard had a go at helming again. which was fun for him but not for me.
he got the hang of it eventually. we did from7.5 to 15.5 miles in the bay with some very good reaches and richard going out on the wire  on several occasions.
total time 2h34m 15.7 miles
filmed as well.
