First we had to go Belgium, an easy 56 mile motor sail across the surprisingly quiet English Chanel from Ramsgate to Nuiewpoort. We had heard stories of the masses of shipping in the narrow, current affected channel. There were only a handful of ships, all with AIS, and easy to avoided in the clear crisp autumn sunshine. We only made one course change. Singapore was far worse!
The Nuiewpoort Marina has over 1000 berths, most vessels look well cared for and there were many out sailing when we arrived. We arrived in the marina comfortably before dark.
