Ile de Groix to River Aven - 16th August

Having stayed at Ile De Groix for a few days we were wanting a change of scenery and we had decided to start making for home so Chris and I set sail in the morning for the River Aven.  The sail across was uneventful (no it wasn't it rained!!) and we arrived at Port Menach at about mid afternoon.  The fact that it is called Port Menach doesn't really indicate that it's a port as it is quite shallow and there is no marina so we anchored in the river and waited for Nanuk to arrive.  P and C had decided to leave Ile De Groix later and so they arrived about 2 hours after us but half way there they were caught in a torrential downpour which cut visibility dramatically and forced them to don oilies for the latter half of the trip.
