09 Jul - On waking this morning we realised it was time to head back to civilization when we spotted we were down to our last clean underwear!  Leaving the Pinkertons we had a steady motor against building winds into Uculet (the wind being right on the nose the whole way building from 10 - 20 knots before we turned into the channel.  For some wierd reason we both felt on edge today but neither of us could put a finger on why - was it the continually leaking prop seal?  Were we frustrated by not being able to get the boat to perfectly sail how we wanted?  were we just in need of being on land?  No matter, we got into Uke and anchored up just past the marina's for the night.  We took the Dinghy in to sus the place out and make sure there would be room for us in the morning and then had a quiet evening trying to work out what was bothering us
