Brighton for the night

Much slower progress than expected did not see us in Brighton until nearly 6 so we are here for the night. Wind varied from a F2 to a 5, but always on the nose...again! everyone did a turn sailing but only si northrop managed all 40 miles non stop. Plans for tomorrow vary from a Channel hop to the Solent, to be discussed over dinner.

Welcomed into Brighton by X-Leisure staff, who had arranged free mooring for us and took photographs for their in house magazine. X-Leisure are the owners of the restaurant and leisure facilities at the marina. The business owns similar properties throughout the UK and has been associated with the Thames Raiders from the beginning through PY Gerbeau and William Sunnucks who work together at Capital & Regional.
