It was hugely comforting to encounter both John and David Madden in the marina on Tuesday and Wednesay.where they were regularly checking the boats that were still in the water and taking cognisance of warps (ropes to some!).

  • Whilst not quite as bad as the early hous of Tuesday morning It was nonetheless gusty at the time I took these photos.
  • Difficult to accurately capture the state of the water as the wind swept across the marina.
  • Water levels have risen over the past few days. Note how close the water is to the fingers.
  • Morning Mist well protected against the elements.
  • Amicus in her berth.
  • Something Else
  • Estonya
  • Dom Perignon in a berth near the entrance to the marina off the main navigation channel.
  • John Madden doing a check of warps/ropes.
  • Dom Perignon securely berthed.
  • Kilmore Lass...poor quality photo. Not sure if I damaged my camera or simply took a poor short.  Actually I took about four and this was one of the better ones. Peter, not sure about the condition of your canopy at the back.
