Cloudless Skies


What a contrast to the last post! A cloudless blue sky on Sunday saw us paddling from East Wittering to Church Norton via Selsey Bill. The tide cooperated perfectly with a good easterly push in the morning, reversal over the 1/2 hour lunch break, and a  westerly push back in the afternoon, making the 14nm fly past with barely a need to tickle the water with the paddle. The tide at Selsey Bill set up some wavelets; seeking out a surfable spot, I was surprised at how shallow it was, even a good way out, with seaweed and rocks clearly visible below the keel.

Returning under the lifeboat station.
