I will have a capable sailor with me But i will insist right up till point of peril to do it singled handed including the leg work and learning as with all these questions.
my wind is most always out of the south so I will steam out with the out going tide under flat conditions I get 6 knots at 2500 rpm's with a clean bottom. I would hope to have the afternoon winds at my back. the southerly breezes are most always out of the south. if that's the case I will be on the way back in at the last of the turnaround of the tide. So my outgoing tide will just starting to go back out. That may allow me to put my boat right-into her birth. I nose into my birth and the outgoing tide is on my nose giving me steering.
