Deciding that was too dangerous, we paddled out and told them how steeply the beach shelved there, and that they'd probably experience a listing and crashing feeling during the night. They have just started their engines and are moving elsewhere, presumably to anchor in priory bay.

What an end to the day. Looking forward to some sleep without the worry of them next door!

You must have been concentrating on typing that when the revving engine and shouts of' Oi mate are you stuck' started as they ran aground at high tide

Great weekend, will upload some pics and vids when I wake up properly
