13 – 17 August
Entry One
The journey down to Portsmouth was rather uneventful. After a short lunch we headed off to where the boat was docked. As we walked down the boardwalk we sighted a presumably 20 million pound luxury yacht. Sadly this wasn’t the boat we’d be on for the week. We then boarded our, smaller, sailing boat and motored towards another port, Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight. After docking and securing the yacht in Yarmouth we made dinner which consisted of fajitas. Many tears were shed in the cutting of the onions. After eating our fajitas we explored the sailing yacht further. Port watch then cleaned up the mess we made. Today was a reasonably paced first day where we all got to know each other. We are looking forward to some proper sailing tomorrow with a cruise down to Weymouth.
