Notes
We calculated that we'd need to get to RWB as close to high tide as possible - in the end we got there before high water so being neaped on the sands for a year didn't happen!
Other boats with us were Gigi and Enigma. The barbeque was pretty hard to get going, but eventually we got some sausages cooked. Thereafter we retired to the sailing club, where a 60th birthday party was in full swing - and us in our wellies!
