Stromness to Home (1st-2nd August)

Angus arrived on the morning of the 1st of August for the route march home.

We had a sail in Scapa Flow, visiting Houton Bay for future reference. Then my old sprayhood split some of its stitching and we decided to head for Longhope and a visitors' mooring to rest up until 7pm when we could head across the firth.  Two or three hours of food, stiching, and sitting around seemed to put us in the right place.

We dropped the mooring about twenty to seven, and then motored into a headwind the whole way to Inverness, finally switching the engine off in the marina at 10:36 the following morning.
