Still in Waterford waiting for Gail to return from England after seeing the new Nuttall.
Decided to fuel up ready for the next leg. This involved buying two additional 20 litre fuel cans, borrowing the trolly from the marina office, and walking a mile each way to the garage...twice. The first time I filled both cans and could hardly push the trolly. Luckily, I onle needed 60 litres, so one can the second visit.
Eating well and and probably getting fat. No doubt that will change when I am sailing again. The plan was originally to go from here to Kilmore Quay, and then to Arklow and on to Dublin Bay. Looking at the weather we might try direct for Arklow on Thursday as after that strong Easterlies are coming in when it will be nasty getting in ther, but we might be O.K. going in to Dun Laghaire or Howth.
Wtch this space for more action later in the week.
Nice pic of Fizzz.
