It was a unique opportunity; crew for the RYA instructor that had just got me through my Day Skipper exam.
So, I didn't hesitate in accompanying Dan Roper on his 31ft Nicholson yacht, Colonsay of Melforth, leaving Falmouth, heading for L'aberach in France.The passage was calm although rainy at times, and we stood 2 hour watches each. Dan's further practical tuition was appreciated on the way, and after staying overnight on a mooring buoy in L'aberach, we spent the next 2 days sailing through the Chenal de Four and onto Brest, where I left the boat.
The total voyage was logged at 134 Nm.
