Easter 23 East Cowes - 7th/9th April 2023

 The Maiden Voyage of 2023 was three days in East Cowes as we tried to dodge the weather which was changeable. Its been a protracted wet period and we were unsure what the weather might do, as it turned out the Friday and Saturday were sunny and cool but the weather returned with a vengeance on the Sunday so we headed for home a head of the weather front.
