We set off from Keyhaven at about 12.00 to get the tide and current to take us to Portsmouth for the night. So after a late breakfast we walked into Milford on Sea to stock up.
Leaving Keyhaven we took a narrow channel heading east that brought us out near the entrance to Lymington. From there we had a cracking sail up the Solent - pursued (and overtaken) by three large yachts whose crews were all kitted out in uniform. They seemed to set football fields of canvas and were very impressive sights.
Near the ship channel we were followed by a more modern leviathan.
We tied up in Gosport marina and took the ferry across to Gun Wharf keys to enjoy the fleshpots (of which there was a great deal) but settled for a pizza before turning in for the night.
