Not much wind until Aberdeen, then a huge thunderstorm hit. We has a bit of everything - torrential rain, thunder, lightening and variable winds up to force 5.
All this while trying to dodge the traffic going in and out of the port. Most exciting to say the least!
Then on to Stonehaven, which is a beautiful little harbour. We moored against the wall there and were joined by Jimmy; a friend of Frosties.
We also met an intrepid lady sailing on her own, who moored against our boat.
The penalty for us helping her out was that she had to get up at 04:00 this morning, as that is when we left.
A 15 hour slog under engine again today; to Eyemouth to beat the bad weather coming in. I have just done my first 2 hour watch and back to my bunk now for a kip.
Good luck to Abigail - last A Level today. yippee!
Nice Photo, looks like Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise have some competition......
