Daily archives: June 26, 2020

We had our best passage ever in the Med, sailing between the Spanish mainland and Formentera. After a few days relaxing, we headed on to the north of Ibiza and the visually stunning anchorage of Punta Grossa.

One of those kind of days. One minute blue sky, the next torrential downpour. But given this is the first significant rain we've had since May, we'll happily take the free boat wash 😁

It also meant I got on with finishing our latest blog, also weather related. "Time to Leave the Med" is up on our website - see link in our bio!

The river is keeping us busy! At high tide the bamboo sticks get washed off the shoreline and float up river. We seemed to have anchored right in the flow.

With wind, 2kts of tide and the weight of these sticks (they're surprisingly heavy when grouped together) on the chain, we were worried about tripping the anchor.

Although we did consider collecting enough to creat an island, plant a flag in it and declare it "Emerald Land" 😁
