Day 21 - Saturday, 19th July, 2014
Circa 09.40... Carreras is about to make the return passage to Kilrush while Arthur will be heading to Lawrence Cove on Bantry Bay. Weather forecast for the return passage to Kilrush looks even better than the outward leg.

Windguru weather forecast for Brandon Bay for week beginning 19th July. Carreras should have a very smooth passage to Kilrush.

Hopefully there is an equally good weather forecast for Bolus Head and Bantry Bay so that Arthur will have a smooth passage to Lawrence Cove later today!

Arthur snugly tucked in her berth. Note the new decking on the marina jetties. A major upgrade of the jetties/fingers was implemented over the winter in time for the 2014 season. A super job. And the new power blocks enable unused credit to be restored to the shorepower card...neat!
