Traject Ramsgate - Dover

After two tropical days in Ramsgate, it was time to determine the next destination. Originally we wanted to continue along the East Coast of England, but the direction of wind and the current were not in our favour.
We therefore decided to go South to Dover.
After leaving the harbour of Ramsgate we first set all sails, but soon it was clear that there was no wind at all.
We let ourselves drift by the South bound current in the beautiful sunny weather. Sam decided to swim while I took my fishing rod and tried to catch our evening meal.
After a couple of hours we felt some wind and soon we had 14 kn wind on the log.
We set sails to Dover where we arrived around three in the afternoon.

In Dover we headed for the Dover castle as real tourists.
Afterwards we went to the Royal Cinque City Yachtclub for some beers.
The Pakistany take-away made some amazing good food for us, so we didn't had to cook for ourselves.

We will keep you update
