A Rustler 37 named Sophie is delivered from Falmouth, Cornwall, to Largs, Scotland, crewed by Karl and Mike out of Pendennis Marina.0:26 The pre-delivery check sheet shows the boat fully equipped and well maintained, with in-mast furling and electric winches.2:02 Departure is timed roughly one hour before high water Falmouth to catch a tidal lift around Land's End, pushing boat speed to seven to seven-and-a-half knots.4:09 Light-wind conditions dominate the passage: the crew motor-sails through most of the first two nights, running radar during patchy fog.4:47 A stopover at Bangor Marina in Northern Ireland provides a full rest before the final leg to Scotland, sailed close-hauled in a F4-to-F3 breeze.9:40 At one point the engine is shut down for oil and fluid checks while drifting under sail at half a knot.5:52 The handover at Largs includes a full washdown, varnish touch-up, disinfected heads and galley, fridge left open and off, and seacocks closed.12:48 Tidal timing at departure is the one technique that meaningfully boosted passage speed on an otherwise windless trip.
