3 boats from Starcross Yacht Club decided to make an early crossing to Guernsey and possibly beyond. What transpired was an excellent excursion with some brilliant sailing on some days, revisiting some lovely locations and ending with spectacular celebrations in the Victoria Marina in St Peter Port. We take the smooth with the rough and max out the enjoyment!
Crossing the English Channel to Guernsey, Brittany and Normandy
Having started sailing later in life I have migrated from a 14ft dinghy via a Sadler 26 to a 32ft Westerly Fulmar. I sail mostly single handed in the South West from the Solent to the Scillies or across to the Channel Islands and ajacent French coast. In 2020 I planned to sail mostly single handed around Britain. Due to Covid-19 this was unfortunately not possible. I finally completed that challenge starting in April 2021: finishing in early July. You can check out my journey and experiences, good and not so good in the blog posts below or my YouTube channel - search for “voyages of Thalmia” -
