Grey skies but light winds
Approaching Megstone
Some dive boats around
Approaching Longstone
About 5 miles offshore
A 'litter' of boats ?
Am I bovvered ?
Lion's mane jellyfish
Guillemots galore
And somewhere in there Cormorants, Shags and the odd Razorbill
Puffins
And there's more, what a spectacle ! Shame about the gloomy weather but it didn't spoil it
Some flow and a little lumpy across Staple Sound to 'the Kettle'
Where we were met by many seals, excited to see us
The last leg back across Inner Sound was a slog against the flooding tide
Distance paddled about 19.5k
