It 'twas the hottest day of the year yesterday, not much wind out on the water just glorious glorious sunshine.
We headed out early to find a good spot in the Yealm. The Sound was packed with bots as it was the annual Eddystone charity sailing race.
We went out in the usual Sadler formation as Mairadon was joining us again this weekend. We had a brief spell under sail and then the motor went back on.
This was our first visit to the Yealm this year and as ever it never disappoints. I love coming into the entrance by Cellar Bay. We may have missed the bluebells this year but the water clarity and stunning hill edges made up for that.
We expected the place to be packed but it wasn't so had the whole pick of the visitors pontoon to choose from.
A lazy afternoon was spent taking in the views and basking in the sunshine before a lovely walk alongside the rivers edge, looking at the new array of Grand Design builds towards The Ship Inn at Noss Mayo where we ate an early supper and watched the tide come in over the tidal steps.
A dinghy ride up towards the Kitley Estate on the way back made for a prefect barmy summers day.
Today we have woken up again to perfect weather, das captain is still asleep and looking at the forecast I am hoping we can have some fun with the cruising Shute on the way back.
