Bit of a follow-up to my previous post, this is what it looks like when the tide changes... We spent a week in this spot and each day we'd twice go through this cycle of the boat first being up high and dry and then a few hours after floating again. Just having the opportunity to look at all the life sprawling in this intertidal zone up close each day really makes you appreciate the tide cycles on a whole new level.
Come and see the @vitapower2023 Seal and @rselectricboats Pulse 63 at this year's South Coast and Green Tech Boat Show guided by @raymarine_uk, April 21-23 in Southampton. Alongside global power and sail brands, the Show brings you new innovative eco-friendly products that lead the electric boat revolution. We will also have an @aquasuperpowerlimited2730 fast electric charge point on display to demonstrate how easy and quick electric boat charging is.

We've been out on my 33year old, 30ft Sagitta catamaran a few times since launching a month ago. But yesterday was the first "real" sail. I was joined by Alex and Kristina, who had sailed the boat a couple of times last year. There was more wind than expected, 20+ in Plymouth Sound. We left the mooring at 14.30, reached out to sea until we were 10 miles south of the breakwater (according to the gps) then turned round and were back on mooring at 17.30. 27 miles sailed. No breakages, but a spinnaker wrap on the last gybe as we re-entered the Tamar. So "a good time was had by all", and hopefully bodes well for the Falmouth Triangle race this holiday weekend.
