    Well done! You picked perfect conditions for it, the surface looks like a millpond! 👍I’m thinking of doing this in a 14’ Fletcher speedboat. Any issues crossing shipping lanes? (I’m wary of wake turbulence.) But also… this was before Brexit. What would we have to do now, head for the nearest French port police office on arrival to get our passports stamped?

      Not sure now, or then. I suppose we entered the country without showing a passport, but it was very brief. Example for any sailors turning up in a port in another country, expect we used the beach !

      George Shackleton Took about 2 hours each way ( we went the long route from Rye to Bolougne ) . The 2 Stroke GP1300r required fuel. We took Jerry cans on the support RIB and filled up at sea.
