There was frost on the windscreen for the first time since
last Winter. However, the day was sunny with a clear blue
sky and only a light breath of wind.
Nine members of IOPCC met at East beach. Launching was
uneventful and we enjoyed a smooth sociable paddle to Lyme
Regis.
Lunch was leisurely on the warm sunny beach. We were treated
to home baking from Hilary and also from new member Diana
who is a nutritionist and chef at
Fitwoman Boot Camp.On the return trip we paddled
close inshore. A few small waves at Charmouth provided some
entertainment. The rocky outcrops off Golden Cap and
Thorncombe Beacon removed a few more slivers of gel coat. We
bimbled our way back in the sunshine to West Bay where Jill
managed to move up from 2= to 1= on the Swim Tracker by
taking a swim whilst landing! How we laughed!!
