Having made it into Ramsgate late last night with an increasing wind and sea state, we moored in the ‘Strictly over 12 metres only’ section – there was a 6 metre gap available (our instructions had been moor next to a similar sized boat!). On seeing the size of our boat our berthing instructions were quickly revised and we are currently tucked in a ‘sheltered’ corner of the marina, however the swell entering the marina has caused us to feel the second most sea sick of our entire trip!
A walk to the northern breakwater this morning confirmed our decision not to cross the Thames today, and probably not tomorrow day time either.

So near but so far to the finish, the weather always controls our fate. I know how you must feel re the swell in Ramsgate the same thing happend to me. Take the time to chill out while the wind calms down. Nicky
