Snow hits the region again this year (December the 2nd 2010)

We had around 6 inches of snow over night and the Marina was starting to freeze.

 



East Cowes Marina - Sat 16th & Sun 17th October 2010

With another unexpected sunny weekend we took the opportunity to take a trip to

East Cowes Marina, although cool northerly breeze it was beautiful.

Our return trip on Sunday was very calm F2/3 back and moored at Port Solent in under 1.5 hours.

That's probably it for the season....but you never know.

Autum Weekend to Bucklers Hard 9th/10th October 2010

     

It's a glorious Warm Autum weekend (21 deg C) and time to get one last run in

before the season ends and the onset of winter.

When we arrived it was cloudy, but soon as we started to clean her out come the sun as promised.

Then it was time to sit back take some rays and watch the sun go down.

The following day the suns up first thing along with the wind so heading back is going to be bumpy...

Oh well its been such a great chill out from work.
