Tuesday 29 June Stroomness(Orkney) to Wick

It was a 4:00 start to allow us to cross Scapa Flow and have time to spare to catch the tide across the Pentland Firth. It was an uneventful crossing in 5kn of wind so it was motor all the way. Looking out for killer whales that my brother hadspotted a few days previously. We arrived off Wick late morning and due to the easy passage continued onto Peterhead where wwe arrived late evening . Since we had both had some sleep on route and it was going to be a windless night we carried onto Eyemouth arrivig at 17:00 the following afternoon. 210 miles in 31 hours under engine, It will be good to sail the boat.
