Humber Bridge to Kilnsea

A journey we have done many times, what should have been a simple but long trip turned into a real grind. Forecast was for southerly breezes with a touch of westerly in it. The westerly never materialised and instead what we had was a touch of easterly, just what you don't want for this journey. To add to this the seven metre tide just didn't really assist as well as it should have, maybe due to the high pressure system. Fi, Glenn and Dave did bloody brilliantly and took the conditions on the chin. We ran out of tide coming up the seaward side of Spurn but the group ploughed on.. I think we are all pretty knackered right now...
