I'm starting to lose count as to how many days I've been here - I think this is day 5. The wind was supposed to shift to the NW today which would have allowed me to close haul up to Peterhead but it never did. Ventured out on the ebb tide but it was just hard on the nose with quite a chop making it uncomfortable motoring. Breaking waves coming over the bow and I knew once the tide stream turned north it would just get worse so after about a mile turned around and headed back to Stoney. The harbour master remarked when I threw him a line - "Haven't I seen you before?" Still tomorrow looks promising with the wind backing to the SW which would be ideal to get me up to Peterhead. Anyway had a small session in the pub last night with two lads from Fleetwood - Keith and Dave who are also doing RB.
Well hopefully my next post will be from Peterhead or Whitehills on th north coast.
