Dandelion 22

 

St Peter Port's prelude to summer is about to end. Replaced by heavy weather, from the south, on Monday. With a building westerly through Sunday. Breakfast is taken early, amongst the Morlaix fleet.

By mid morning, the inner basin has emptied. The boats homeward bound, in light airs. The energetic Guernsey Ports dories, and their tireless masters, able, at last, to rest.

Harbour life resumes a leisured pace.

Stargazer moves onto the outer pontoons. Beyond the timing constraints of the cill. To catch the dawn tide; and ride the west wind.
