Helford River - Monday 11th July 2011 - Day 66
View of the Helford River from the sailing club balcony. Bill Edwards leaves today and we got the water taxi ashore where Rob met us and drove to Truro where Bill got his train back home. We went to the local and the largest Sainbury's store I have been in, where we stocked up with provisions. Rob took me back on board in his tender 'Bumble' and left it with me.
This was a great bonus as it allowed me to go ashore in the evening where I walked along to the very popular Shipwright Arms and had a very nice steak. Back to the yacht club for the nightcap and watched from the balcony as another tender made its way onto the pontoons and had great difficulty with the outgoing tide. I decided to wait a little longer before returning to the boat and paddled quite away out before dropping the outboard engine to start the powered journey back. Another lovely day spent in an idyllic setting.
