Back in Uk after a bit of lumpy crosss channel passage, not helped by very big spring tides which means strong currents which makes seas more disturbed than normal. Going through Alderney race we had 13 knots across ground at one stage which meant we had 7 knots of tide with us! Not helped by rain squalls on english side with strong winds so by the end we had only a small amount of sail up. Anyway left St Peter Port at 0630 and picked up buoy of Yarmouth at 1930 so quite a quick crossing. Overall a very good holiday.
