The weather looks good today so we're off to Wales. The first half of the crossing is perfect the winds are light and the sea flat. We have about 15nm to go and the wind and sea pick up. This slows us right down, we can only manage to do about 1.5kn. After 3 hours of slogging the wind drops a little and we pick our speed up a bit. Eventually after 13 hours of paddling we reach our destination tired and hungry. Normaly we would plan for the next day but we just eat and crawl into our bivi bags.
Todays photo shows Rach using our trolley we have on test from summit to sea. Its doing a good job so far.
