Conwy Quay
Wet, cold but very exhilarating to say the least. Good to know one had friends nearby. Motoring into a force 7 wind over tide was probably as near a terminal experience as one would wish to have, but Hawkeye and others coped with it well. As you see some of our pictures are correspondingly damp!
Ready for tomorrows challenge.

Nice pics - the survival suits say it all! Who on here bought Ardbeg the new Redbay S-750? She's a prototype and I'm interested to know how she got on?
