With the swell dying down, our morning was spent ringing ahead to Whitby, Grimsby and Lowestoft and recalculating the weeks sailing times to fit the tides for port entries.

The barrage of requests for our final departure time from all quarters showed the incredible level of interest in our Expedition. By the end of lunchtime we were able to announce an 5.30am departure on Tuesday 19th March. 

Early to bed. :-)
