Surely you all know that Salcombe has it's own weather system. There will be no rain, only sun.

And converging wind patterns, spinnakers from crossways and spinakers back from Blackstone , fantastic fun

The BBC forecast is generally ruubish and always at the extremes. XCweather is generally more reliable. Mind you it still doesn't look as if the odd pie will go amiss.

Looks as though I may just try and find someone to tow the boat to Mill Bay rather than sail it over Saturday(particularly as it isn't mine!) but Sun/Mon looks pretty good
