A real pea souper on the Helford
After a very wet sail from Fowey we awoke to a real pea souper. We won't be going anywhere for a while .
Our first overnight at the top of the River Auray at Le Bono
We moored on a convenient buoy and took the dinghy up to the centre of Le Bono. It's a really pretty spot and well worth the visit. One of it's claims to fame is that it is the final resting place of the legendary French sailor Bernard Moitessier (who sailed in his boat Joshua in the original Golden Globe alongside Robin Know Johnston in 1969. For French people their sailing heroes are like rock stars - rather unlike the UK !
