So I did an evening watch from the lighthouse, 5:45pm-8:20pm, with an easterly wind and bright conditions. It was slow going to put it mildly: nothing much was passing by, save a few auks; and yet I was still getting news of poms passing other watch points: where were they?! Frustration turned to determination - and finally - about an hour and half after starting my sea watch, one passed by.
(Turned out the Solent was far more inviting for them...).
The lone pom.
