After an early night yesterday, we left Lowestoft at 06.15 this morning. As forecast, the wind was suitable for sailing and therefore it was only necessary to use the engine to get out of the harbour.
For most of the day we used all four of Tenacity’s sails and achieved a top indicated speed of 7.4kts (although, taking into account a helpful tide, our actual speed was probably much higher).
We are now sat at anchor and Skipper Ian is making biscuits for us. I am sure they will be delightful, but will report back tomorrow when we have tried them!
P.S. The biscuits were very good, although Ian says they were more crunchy than intended.
