Peterhead & 2020

Raasay was berthed in Peterhead over the winter of 2019-2020.

The marina is well-serviced and cheap, but has quite a serious fouling issue. My 'two season' dose of anti-fouling paint struggled, and sailing in 2020 required a few scrubs.And was a bit slower ...

I nearly thought there would be no sailing in 2020, of course, but I managed to go to Orkney & Fair Isle before the lockdown got serious in the summer. Two of my sons came with me for part of the trip.

The photos are a bit of a random selection:
