Queen of Tarts arrives in Wick

Wed july 22 we arrive in wick at 6pm. Set out from peterhead 4am with
tide after night sheltered from storm. Bound straight across moray
firth into heavy fog. Pass ratry head old homestead of friend peter
cumyn back in quebec. Wind 10 kts beam reach enough for halfling
spinnaker. Soon lose wind have to motor all the way at 6 kts. No
Dolphins today but many seabirds. Tonite ther is talk of poker and-or
scoth. Tomorrow we battle the heavy tides to the orkneys, jos will do
his homework well. Spirits are high in anticipation of tomorrows next
adventure. Love to all. Slang!
