Bangor to Ardglass

---

We left Bangor at 0715 and arrived Ardglass at 1335. It was wet and miserable as we sailed west to the Copeland Sound. We entered the Sound with a F 3-4 on our tail. Web picked up the red buoys on our starboard because the buoyage is north going into Belfast Lough. After we passed through the sound we had an easy motor sail right down to the delightful village of Ardglass which wins hands down as the nices place we have stayed in since Tory. Small local fishing boats and none of the supertrawlers we saw tied up in Killybegs. Again the electricity and showers were all included at 20 pounds. We found a local hostelry with wi-fi and two lovely barmaids one of whom sported a Down jersey and reminded us that they were playing Cork next Sunday in the qualifiers. I reminded her that Cork has one thing that Down does not........the Sam Maquire.
