Dave’s 60 miles

Up early to take Buzz for a walk on shore and then dinghy stashed away and off before 9 am for Dave's 60-miler back to Dartmouth. Had to engine all the way as they wind was slight until we were nearly in Dartmouth but found that the autopilot was working well. Pretty uneventful trip but the Navy's new aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth was anchored outside Dartmouth when we arrived which was interesting. Stayed in Dartmouth town overnight rather than going straight up to Noss as then could fill up with diesel on the way in the morning. Had a pint in the Yacht Club. Distance 68 miles so mission accomplished.
