F3 Easterly, dawn paddle, beautiful. I pushed my self today and really enjoyed the work out. It took me 1 hour 42 minutes to cover 9 statute miles. At that pace it would take me just under 2.5 hours to paddle round Hayling Island. I'm not sure I can hold that pace for 2 and a half hours yet.
The flood tide into Chichester Harbour is later than Portsmouth Harbour, so an anti clockwise trip would get the most tidal assistance. I reckon leaving the West end of Hayling beach 1.5 hours before HW Portsmouth on a big Spring tide would be optimum for me.
