Stonehaven

Monday 1900 UTC: we arrived in Schotland! The ride was fast with 4, 5
and 6bf SW winds, but also with a vere rocky and confused sea making
us slightly uncomfortable.
Arrival made up for that though. We anchored underneath Donmorran
Castle and went for a swim in 15degree (...) water. The view could not
have been more dramatically Schottish. We are now readieing for a
pubdinner in Stonehaven - a vere pretty village.
Tomorrow winds will shift east, so we will probably push ahead at
first light get the tide and the remaining SW wind and make it to
Peterhead while we easily can. From there to Wick is NW journey and ok
in E-SE winds.
