Just to escape inertia

I talked them into leaving the river and heading down the coast to a Marina in Gosport.

They were getting frustrated with the weather, having troubles making updates to the blog by radio, the switch on the wind generator burnt out and I think they ran out of ideas for using peas.

I was getting sick of waiting patiently to be ferried back to shore for a run.  I know I have to get used to being on the boat all the time, but there is only so much you can do when it is windy and rainy outside.

They left the anchorage at Itchenor made the short jump up the Solent to Portsmouth.  After filling up with fuel, another job they forgot to do before leaving, they attempted to CRASH LAND in the slip they were assigned.  Now they got the boat in there, I have no idea how they are going to get it out.

It is windy, rainy and horrible here too, but at least I am not taking my life in their hands every time they run me to shore in the dingy.  They do not have to worry about crazy Belgians who keep slipping anchor and heading for us.  They just have to worry about how they will get out when the weather improves.
