Off to the boat tomorrow afternoon with the Bosun as crew. A chance to make the most of this Indian summer we're currently enjoying.
Forecast is F2 Southerlys on Saturday going round into the West and dropping to F1 by Sunday afternoon. Great! It's the story of 2011 - too much wind last time out, not enough this time and, on Sunday at any rate, what there is is coming from the worst possible direction!
Plan is a gentle weekend exploring further up the Roach than we've been so far. F2 from the South should serve nicely for the outbound trip on Saturday, spending Saturday night on the hook somewhere up the Roach. Odds are we'll end up motoring or motor sailing back up the Crouch on Sunday so we'd better top up the fuel tanks before departing! We have to be back on the mooring by mid-afternoon come what may as I've got to be home by 7:00pm
