Hi, I'm back

410 miles in 7 days (about 96 hours sailing). Not bad for Bavaria Cruiser 36.

Not bad at all! Far from it!

Aegean sea is usually nicely windy and sunny. Was it the case ?

We spent 24 hours on the first 60 Nm (Kavala - Samothrace) waiting for the sea breeze most of the time. Then 13 hours on the next 50 miles to Limnos. And then the real fun began as the meltemi picked up to force 4-5 and stayed there for the rest of the trip.

And sunny it was. Clouds and thunderstorms over the mainland, but the sky was clear over the sea. Good opportunity to watch the Perseids too.
