Great! Stand by to sail away!
Pull the W&C boat up with those rope & pulley things!
Weigh anchor! (It was about 4 tonnes last time I weighed it)
Put her in reverse for a bit ...impulse power only!
Wait for the wind to blow the ship around to the North .... then we have to clear the cliffs .. so ...

Left hand down a bit, Helmsman!

*Kes inspects the chart for the Western Approaches to the Channel ... decides not to paint out Fastnet, as it has a lighthouse on it ... sets a course for a bit to the left of the pointy part at the bottom left hand corner of England*
Steady as she goes!
