Portland Marina.

0800 hrs

Wake, breakfast then 'Happy Hour'.

1000 hrs

Depart from Portland. Sadly from time to time on a sail training voyage things don't work out smoothly on a trip, this was one occasion, and after a significant amount of consultation the skipper decided that two crew members would need to leave Prolific. It was decided that we would motor to Poole where the crew members could be collected by family and due to tides we needed to arrive before the ebb. A fast motor, more of an 'Italian tune' of the engine was made and we arrived in Poole in double quick time.

1430 hrs

Poole

Following the departure of the two crew members an ice cream was enjoyed and a stroll along the pier before settling down for a film onboard.
