A confidence restoring cruise across Falmouth Bay!

In early August, after her boisterous return from Weymouth, "Susan J", not to mention her crew, were in need of a gentler cruise!

Here Julie is relaxing aboard, enjoying the sunset from "Susan J"'s mooring off Helford Passage

The following morning we sailed towards Falmouth.

Anchored at the top of Carrick Roads at Turnaware Point, From where we could see Tresillick House.

We carried on to Portscatho.  Here we went ashore and joined Roger and Rosemary at their lovely home, from where Roger has a commanding view over to Nare Head and Gull Rock.

Anchored off Portscatho. The observant amongst you will notice the absence of "Susan J"'s inflatable Danbuoy, on the starboard push pit.  It had been found on the saloon shelf and deployed more accessibly, after servicing, when we acquired her.  On a glorious morning for a swim, it was test deployed  with a view to a subsequent annual service - it sunk like a stone without trace!
