This morning we got off to a slow start, because it was the last full day and getting up was really tough! When we finally got started we had bacon butties, then Georgina and Rehana washed up very slowly (as usual!) because they had to wash up all the “giant” pans.
Before setting sail, we had a bit of trouble with the anchor as it sort of got jammed! Luckily Mike was able to fix it with the help of his sidekick Hannah – so it’s all good now! We finally set sail from Piel Island with Rehana steering, whilst Lucy and Millie slept cozily on deck at the stern. Afterwards we had some “Chocolate Tiffin” cake made yesterday, which was rather scrumptious! Soon after, we discovered our first signs of sea sickness: Millie had it first followed by Georgina, Hannah and Rehana; whilst lucky Alice just lay in the sun at the back.
We then swapped over to Port watch and Millie helmed the boat superbly to Fleetwood to help with her sea sickness. With Millie at the helm, we gained our top sailing speed of the day and the whole trip (6 knots!).
We soon moored up the boat in Fleetwood harbour, and some of us had another go at dinghy handling exercises in the marina with Matt whilst the rest of us chilled out. Afterwards, whilst waiting for fish and chips to sizzle away, we spent our time listening to Matt’s beloved panpipes yet again. Oh dear- lets all start to cry! Boo Hoo!!
Sadly this is our last night on Tenacity here in Fleetwood. We are all as gutted as the fish on our plates! Thank you to Mary, Matt and Mike for everything!
