The 37-ft sailboat Florence transits 281 miles down the Irish Sea from Peel Harbour, Isle of Man, to Milford Haven, Wales, to avoid an approaching gale.0:22 The crew departs Peel Harbour during a specific tidal window, requiring two hours either side of high tide to clear the harbour sill.3:10 After navigating the Irish Sea and passing offshore of the Anglesey shipping separation scheme, the crew anchors in Dale Bay, Milford Haven.9:04 Due to a large tidal range and gently shelving beach, they anchor well offshore.14:03 Forecasts of 50-knot southerly gusts force a move to Milford Haven Marina for shelter, laundry, and provisioning.16:09 Once the weather clears, the crew sails 120 miles to the Isles of Scilly, timing their arrival for daylight by furling the Genoa overnight.18:21 They anchor at Tresco, noting the island’s manicured, private gardens and seasonal closures.23:10 The crew concludes that late-season passage planning requires constant monitoring of weather windows to avoid wind-against-tide conditions at Land's End.12:23
