we went out to see on beat and just kept going at a steady rate we seen alan knowles and his friend john who said they were sailing in the bay, they were actually off old harry . Alan has a mirror
we looked for the angle to tack back into the bar bouy and it was such an angle we decided that Bournmouth pier was more inviting, as the wind picked up with clean air we were zipping along.
the BOURNMOTH EYE was spotted and was dead on the port bow all the way. we looked back at the clouds and i thought hmmm not looking forward to the trip home.
eventually after 1h 19m we got to Bournmouth pier and took some pics to prove it.
we turned for home assuming it was a reach broad reach and we made very good progress as a squall over studland came over, we were hitting some good waves but at a good speed, we made old harry within 15 mins, we were motoring. We kept on the same heading all the way untill we got to peverill and tacked back into the bay toward the mowlem, and then toward the old pier,
We were back on shore withing 2h 15 from beach leaving to beach arriving, the last bit was the slowest so with this taken into account the trip must have been my fastest ever trip to Bournemouth and back EVER.
