Force 5 winds

• Distance: 6.6 km

Force 5 winds, meant limited paddling choices. Met at St Bess, drove to Whitehaven, then back to St Bees again! 2 groups of six, led by Alan and Mark. We practised paddling out to South Head, into the winds, then looping back on ourselves. After a couple of loops, we turned south and paddled with a following sea. The paddle back up North into the wind was very hard. Eventually, we made it back to the slipway, and did a surf landing. Most of the group decided they had had enough for one day, and had a leisurely lunch. I had a lovely evening with Nic & Steve at their campervan.

I’ll sleep well tonight
