Lossiemouth to Chatham - Day 3

I'm on watch 0400  to 0800 today, tacking to avoid shipping at Peterhead and Aberdeen which is slowing us down a bit. Very poor visibility, checking the radar regularly for any approaching vessels. Foggy, cold and damp......hmmmmmm sailing. Gwendoline produced bacon sandwiches that lifted the spirits somewhat.. Very welcome. Next to no wind, motoring, don't look like getting to Holy island until early tomorrow morning making this a very long passage. Finally arrived Holy Island at 0015 Friday. (215 miles, 39 hours). Still thick fog. Anchored in the bay off the castle.
Still no sketches.
