We had to plan our 'escape' from Les Minimes not only to have enough water but also to avoid the 4kt cross current steaming across our berth. It would be a short hop across to St Denis d'Oléron but we had to there before nightfall and also to allow enough water to make it over the sand bar which dried 1.5m above CD.
Enroute we managed to catch a Garfish, which we returned, and Mackerel for our supper.
We were fortunate to be met by the HM just before he finished for the day as there was a Rally taking up all the Visitor berths. He showed us to a place on Pontoon K where we had 2.7m at low water -- sorted.
