All Plans Now Reworked

All plans have now been reworked, renumbered and are looking much better.

Many of the east coast legs have remained the same with an option to stop or refuel. I have done that so that if the weather is good I can continue on to my preferred stop off point.

The entire passage is now:

  • 01 Plymouth - Padstow (Penzance 70NM, Padstow 60NM)
  • 02 Padstow - Milford Haven 75NM
  • 03 Milford Haven - Pwllheli 93NM
  • 04 Pwllheli - Conwy 71NM
  • 05 Conwy - Douglas 55NM
  • 06 Douglas - Larne 75NM
  • 07 Larne - Port Ellen (Islay) 50NM
  • 08 Port Ellen (Islay) - Oban 65NM
  • 09 Oban - Ft William 36NM
  • 10 Caledonian Canal 50NM
  • 11 Inverness - Whilehills 61NM
  • 12 Whiltehills - Peterhead 35NM
  • 13 Peterhead - Eyemouth 109NM (Option Arbroath 60NM)
  • 14 Eyemouth - Hartlepool 82NM (Option Blythe 45NM)
  • 15 Hartlepool - Hull 115NM (Option Scarborough 60NM)
  • 16 Hull - Lowestoft 115NM (Option Gt Yarmouth at 100NM)
  • 17 Lowestoft - Dover 86NM
  • 18 Dover - Littlehampton 81NM
  • 19 Littlehampton - Poole 57NM
  • 20 Poole - Plymouth 108NM

Total Passage Plan Distance: 1549NM

Total Planned stops: 25

Total Planned days on passage: 57 excluding extra time in port for weather

I will renumber the legs when I am more certain of the route.
