Debra and Colin on Deva and Barry and Sue on Samarah
After a quiet morning in Ardglass we set of at about 12:00 for Peel. This was a good
sail on a broad reach all the way across. Look at the straight track above. On this
occasion we did see some whales. I believe they were Minke whales and a couple
came up off my starboard bow. You could mistake them for dolphins but they are
larger and appear to be slower moving.
When we arrived in Peel our allocated berths were all over the marina and not next
to each other so we elected to stay together on the town wall where people were
gathering for the Peel traditional boat weekend. We had a really nice stay here and
met lots of interesting people.
As the weather was nice we had another BBQ in the Bay by the Castle on Fenella
Beach. On this occasion we made good use of Howard’s gas BBQ, and my gas.
Some of the locals were swimming and inspired Barry to dive in for a refreshing
swim.
