Still on overnight passage from Amble to Whitby, I'm on watch again 0230 to 0530 so I should be on deck for the approach into Whitby harbour. Lots of stars plus some shooting stars, used my iPhone night sky app to identify a few of them, quite interesting but really sucked the phone battery power.
Through the swing bridge on target at 0500, tied up in the marina with shore power on and all tidied away by 0530. Back to bed for a couple of hours nap before getting out sketching.
Out sketching 0900 to 1500, got a few sketches done but Whitby was very crowded. shower and tidy up. We are trying to get away by 1700 to get a favourable tide south. We got away on time heading for Southwold. This will probably be the longest passage of the trip I think. Still no wind, motoring again. I'm on watch 2330 to 0230, another stray night. Dodging the gas installations all night long, there were lights from dozens of them visible for most of the night.
Here are today's sketches.
Whitby West Pier
The Boathouse
Fortunes Kippers
Whitby East Side
