Blue sky, bright sun, dolphin

Not much wind, but enough to fill the sails and get 3 knots out of the old girl once the tide turned and we were beating back to Portishead.

Only did about 10 miles in just under four hours. Did meet a dolphin, ever so briefly, on the way out off Denny Shoal. The air was dead still, so we were motor-sailing gently out towards Denny Island, when she crossed our bow, breaching twice within a couple of boat lengths of us.
