15 July 2014 – Llangwym to Dale

For a while we had hoped to get down the river, leave the harbour and go to Lundy.  However it all took too long and we headed slowly in again with light wind. There is a firing range near here and whilst we were sailing about the safety boat came bounding across the waves like an excited puppy. They told us that to avoid the range we had to go to Turbot Bank buoy before heading for Lundy. OK, but strangely this range is not mentioned in the coastguard’s daily broadcasts.
