welcome back to the cactus ated very

good morning or early morning should I

say because it's half past 4:00 and as

always please remember subscribe by

clicking button there if you liked this

video give it a thumbs up so we just

left talky very early morning like I

said even sunrise yet so you can't see

me I am here

hopefully

so we had impact to Weymouth today we

just need to catch the tide window

around Portland which means an early

start for us

so cattlemen isn't a bit when it's a bit

lighter any classes here they're more

[Music]

and we're just heading back to waylay

across nine bank they tie it against it

a minute

some rises just about carbonara this is

gonna break first arriving soon

bent around problems

just an hour now an hour after slack

Walter

the passage cross-line bay was fairly

uneventful the wind was pretty much

constant and the sea state was nice and

calm there's no tax no jives who was

just sailing on a beam reach better

adjust the sails a couple of times but

that was pretty much it the cloud came

in the late morning but then was gonna

blow over in the afternoon or so that

was the forecast and it looked to be

improving as we go further and further

across Lyme Bay we resorted to listening

to Disney soundtracks much to the kids

amusement before we finally actually

read to Portland even the dog had had

enough and went to sleep wrapped up in a

towel he was cold and I felt sorry for

him a little sea hound had not been too

well before we self on this trip we

started to worry little bout him on this

crossing as he was sleeping a little

more than he usually does but he was

still feeling well enough to momen we

put the engine on lane to run taking the

weather windows we had and hiding in the

Gaels

meant we didn't actually managed to get

through mileage in that we actually

really wanted to I'm sure we could have

pushed ourselves further but as I

mentioned earlier little see how I

wasn't too well before we left he'd

actually been diagnosed with a heart

condition I wanted to stay close to

civilization and last cities in case we

needed a vet and his health was getting

a little bit worse the further we went

on this trip so he were starting to get

a little worried we also wanted the kids

to have a bit of fun and we not really

had much chance to anchor up and mess

about so he decided on a way back to

Portland that we stopped off some local

Anchorage's for a bit of R&R

so we just pass Portland bail

we put the intial passage again we did

it under motor purely because the wind

isn't particularly great

and we had a lot of tied with us but I

wants to go up the side of the building

they pushed out

they're the East

which means just fighting a bit the tide

to be honest because there's been the

back end coming up here at the minute we

coming up

but then as soon as we get round the

next point to just over there

their tide is not going to be as strong

as it

we've got to walk around on a half two

knots against us

around the next little bit of the

something like that important

we sail into Weymouth then the wind but

yeah just don't to be cut into tied at

the middle important because it can get

a bit hairy not as bad as when we left

obviously with the last time we came

around here was it was quite choppy and

everything out but

it's time it was serious fairly calm

obviously the height is quite quite

severely because we came through not a

slap tight but flowers after slack water

so there's a good three and a half four

nuts running running

what's that in there maybe the five at

times

people have the sales McKenzie

Bond ders that they this guy he's nice
