We reflect on the lessons learned from our passage around Chicken Rock and the bottom of the Isle of Man, but sadly our cruise around the Irish Sea was coming to an end.
We also discuss how to "build your own riser" if you have to moor up to a harbour wall that lacks risers.

We leave Peel, Isle of man, for a short passage to Port St Mary and we go on a lovely calm day. Unfortunately the weather soon turns and we make the mistake of pressing on when we should probably have turned back to Peel.
Big thanks to Isle of Man Diving Charters who came to see we were OK and assi...
We get weather-bound for a few days in the Isle of Man, so Gaynor goes off in search of the local seafood whilst Beverley keeps an eye on the weather. Eventually, we learn the hazards of tying up to fishing boats (obvious in retrospect, but there you are......)

We sail from Bangor to Peel via Donaghadee Sound and dodging plenty of lobster pots, but rollers from recent storms persisted and, combined with light winds, exposed a weakness in our sail plan.
Once in Peel, Beverley demonstrated just how many layers of clothing are needed in UK waters... Peeling ...
Boat projects take up a lot of our time in Bangor, but we find time to uncover an astounding fact about this quiet little town on the edge of Belfast Lough

Bangor, Belfast and the Titanic - We leave Ardglass to go north to Bangor via the Copelands and Donaghadee Sound (which we transited in darkness so no video alas) and into Bangor Marina.
We decided to take the train into Belfast and do a tour of the place, starting with the Titanic.

We sail from Carlingford to Ardglass which means we have to cross Greenore Point - an area notorious for tidal streams, breakers and rough seas. Since the boat next to us in the marina got badly damaged transiting the Point, we are a bit nervous before setting off...

The "Rule of Twelfths" is a rule-of-thumb that we use frequently to decide if a location is safe to anchor or if a passage is safe to do. It only takes a few minutes and does not need tidal curves or templates. All you need is the tidal range and High Water height.
We use the Rule to deci...
An eventful stay at Howth and Ireland's Eye with Bev being sent up the mast to sort out some hoists and then Salty Lass gets into a bit of difficulty.

We hop from Port Dinorwic to Caernarfon and then across the infamous Caernarfon Bar to Ireland which was hiding in the most spectacular sunset.
Top tip: Always get LOCAL KNOWLEDGE and never, ever cross Caernarfon Bar without talking to the Caernarfon Harbour master
We move from Conwy and run into an un-forecast storm so we divert to Beaumaris where we spent two days on a mooring ball waiting for it all to blow over.

We have a lovely day's sailing after we pass over drying sands using the Rock Channel to bypass Liverpool's main shipping channel and then skirt all the windfarms to get to Conwy in North Wales where we see the smallest house in Great Britain and the 13th Century Castle.

We made it over to Whitehaven in Cumbia from the Isle of Man and we looked at The Rum Story (link below) which tells the story of Whitehaven, Antigua, rum and profits made on the slave trade.
The weather played merry havoc with us and we left Whitehaven in heavy, rolly seas with a westerly fetch...
We leave a very wet and rainy Peel and do an overnight passage across the Irish Sea and into the Mersey where we wait for the tides to be right so that we can enter the Liverpool lock system and put Salty Lass into her new home in Liverpool Marina

We decided to take a day off and enjoy Portpatrick before we finally leave and commence our run down to the Isle of Man. This time the sea was much calmer and this time we had next to NO wind
