Day 18 - Porth Eilian to Port St Mary

Posted by glyn brackenbury on Wednesday, May 8, 2013
I left Anglesey this morning heading out for the Isle of Man. Having had a couple of rest days felt ready for the crossing, and conditions seemed to be ok. The forecast had changed so many times I decided that having a look in the morning and seeing if I thought it was alright, was probably the best option. 



There's not much I can tell you about the crossing, it was long, it started off windy but that subsided through the day, there was around four hours where I couldn't see land at all, bar the occasional sea bird there were no exciting marine life sightings, and taking a wee was at an advanced level...



I arrived at Port St Mary eleven and a half hours after leaving Anglesey, I found a great place to camp just to the west of the port. Suitably knackered I decided not to bother eating and went straight for the sleep option.
