Day 5 - Tuesday, June 24th - another fairly early start, departing at 07.45 to make sure we rounded the Bill at the best time (around 09.00) and had assistance from the tide across Lyme Bay as we had a long way to go, heading for Dartmouth, some 54 miles in all. Still no decent breeze so, once again, the engine did all the hard work, although we did have the main up for some gentle assistance.
Apart from the lack of breeze, we could not have asked for finer weather for the long crossing.  Sunny and very smooth seas so we just had to sit and watch the world go by while the autopilot kept us on course.
Definite highlight of the whole day was a visit by a pod of dolphins that played with us for around ten minutes.  Just fantastic to see with the water so clear so you could see them above and below the water.  Magical.  I hope some of the photos turn out well.
Arrived in Dartmouth safely shortly after 3.00 and now all secure in the Darthaven Marina, where we will stay for two nights.
