From Boat Journal: Monday 14 July 2003
10-50hrs Just past Tournos
Have just negotiated a lock the Captain had not noticed on the chart. one forgets how active a boating holiday is – particularly aboard Hal. In the bleak days of an Argyll winter one dreams of lazy days, gently floating in endless sunshine – but the reality goes from the extreme of gales and 20ft waves to baking heat that the 1st Mate claims to love, but which renders her near unconscious.
Still….I suppose it is good to be forced to relax….
