The calm belies the huge current surging through. We will slip at 0830 to be at the Strangford Narrows at 0900. Then on to Peel harbour, the Isle of Man...assuming they will take us. They are the only place in the UK whom I have asked but who will not make any concession for our size and reserve us a space... But then I guess that's the point, they are not in the UK! They also claim to have the oldest parliament in the world, the Tynwald.
On 16 June 2014, Yacht Alexandria left Shotley near Harwich and sailed round Britain, visiting Wales, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Isle of Man, Scotland, the Hebrides and Orkneys. The whole trip took 6 weeks, covered 2200 miles, involved 20 crew changes and took on some of the most difficult tidal waters and hostile coastline..and the British weather. A Challenge to be proud of. This is our blog. https://www.justgiving.com/s-p-o/
