Day Six - Teignmouth to Brixham - Thursday 24th June

A leisurely start for us - leaving by 10.00 to catch the tide with a gentle sail down to Babbacombe where we picked up some moorings laid down by the Carey Arms.

Whilst we had lunch a young couple came up through the anchorage, having paddled form Teignmouth, heading for Torquay - a good job it was a calm day or the picnic would have been wet.


Following lunch we had what felt like a brisk sail into Torbay, but the reality was the wind was heading us and progress over the ground was poor, so sails furled and on with the motor into Brixham marina.



The showers at the marina were a godsend and suitably refreshed we headed into town for a curry and to see the sights.

Pictures - Babbacombe Bay and the Carey Arms, Virginia and Siesta moored up, the paddling couple, Brixham from the breakwater entrance, the fleet alongside the visitors pontoon at Brixham marina.
