Sailfish 18: First sailing video, and the last of the season at Cramond

Описание к видео Sailfish 18: First sailing video, and the last of the season at Cramond

I recorded some of our last sailing out of Cramond on Saturday 16th September 2023.
You can see that the river looks brown. There had been a lot of rain, and the river was flowing quite quickly.
Unfortunately the battery in my camera didn't last long enough to record the whole journey.
We were fighting against the wind and the waves to try to reach the Oxcars lighthouse, and although we did get out beyond Cramond Island, we could see we were not making enough progress to get there and back before the tide went out.
Sorry we were in the wrong channel going upstream to turn round, but our route on the inner channel seemed to be blocked by an inflatable, so we pulled alongside another yacht to let the lead yacht past.
Will try to record a lot more next season.
I added three of my previous musical creations as sound recorded on the camera was quite muffled due to being inside the waterproof enclosure.
We did go out further than appears on the video.
Had trouble getting of the mooring, and discovered that we had been blown over a mooring buoy that had apparently hooked onto our keel, but once we got that sorted we were on our way.
The sun was out at Cramond as we left the river, but it soon clouded over as we got further out.
I'm sure we'll make it out to the lighthouse next season.
