A little something out there to keep us focused, but along with 2 crew we should be able to rest enough. The ECMWF forecast has been the most accurate recently.

Athens to Barcelona, on an Xc 45 yacht. We start off motoring but this boat should hold a good speed in light winds. Views from Poros in Greece!

Greeted by a stunning sunrise on our approach to Palmero on the winter solstice. Time for a bit of maintenance and exploration to let that horrible stuff blow through.

⛵ During storm avoidance in Crotone Italy, I made a new friend with a Formosa 57. Possibilities of slippering this around Greece next summer 🤔⛵⛵
