7 am departure. The outside French boat had already left at 6. After an hour of motoring, Pam moaned that she did not care if we didn't get through the Raz today, so long as we could stop motoring. We then found we soon started making adequate speed under sail and continued towards the Raz, eventually crossing at slack water at the end of the northbound flow. A number of other boats were crossing in both directions at that time. Boring again - no overfalls, whirlpools, sea monsters etc.
Arrived at Morgat and after failing to get the anchor to hold, picked up a buoy. On going ashore we could not find the town - must be hidden behind cafes and restaurants. Seems a quiet sort of family holiday place.
Tomorrow we hope to go through the Chenal du Four and maybe finish up at L'Aber Benoit. Another early departure needed.
