Day 23 Bude to lundy

Two hours sleep and we are up at 0015 on Sunday morning. Or is it Saturday night? The wind has dropped and we have a small window for Lundy. The tide is out and its springs. We have a very long and bumpy walk to the sea shore with boats and kit. The next challenge is launching through the surf in the dark, not easy as you can't see the waves until they break. We get out back without incident and the strong spring tide whisks us up the coast. The crossing goes as planned and without incident. One last challenge of the day is carrying all our gear up the hill to the camp site, its a killer and makes the paddle seem easy.
