Another fantastic Autumn day. Andrew suggested a sail, but he meant tomorrow, I got down there, rigged up, no Andrew. So I sailed off anyway. The tack I was on was taking me directly towards the Williamstown Anglers Club. I have long wanted to see if I could get into the little harbour there. The water was crystal clear, light winds, I figured I wouldn't get a better chance, so I dropped sail and very cautiously forward rowed my way in.
It was actually easier from the water to pick the channel in ... well it was an hour off low tide and I didn't hit anything coming or going, so I guess that was the channel.
It was nice to go somewhere new, Andrew nice to stop and have lunch on a bench in the sun.
I would not have tried the entrance in the Core Sound. The Skerry is so light and manoeuvrable I feel a lot more ready to explore. Which is what dinghy cruising is about for me.
