The Cruising Chronicles

The Cruising Chronicles

On a cold, foggy Thursday morning in June, CHRISTO with her compliment of two, myself and our vice-commodore, Rosemary Cadogan, dropped her lines in DĂșn Laoghaire destined for the Isle of Arran, Scotland. Accompanied by Seahouse captained by David Lawlor and her crew of two, both vessels ventured out into the pea soaper of Dublin Bay. Our 06:00 departure accompanied by fair winds guaranteed favourable tides for the voyage north, however with a visibility less than 50 metres both vessels tentatively motored north into Dublin Bay and the challenge of VTS in the fog. Our passage entailed a quick transit however VTS had different plans. Due to excessive traffic and thick fog we were held south of the channel for 45 minutes before clear transit was granted and we continued onto the Bailey. Rounding the Bailey brought the wind from a favourable angle and allowed for the raising of the main and unfurling of the Code D. Continuing on our heading we battled the fog only clearing it when Lambay Island was off our port quarter presenting us with beautiful blue skies and comfortable cruising winds to carry us to our destination.
