Australians in the Med

[Kelvin]

Greetings to all!
We have recently bought an Elan 434 Impression called Chance Encounter. We plan to spend 3 years cruising in the Med and then take a couple of years to sail her home via the Atlantic and The Pacific. A big challenge that one! Currently in the Gulf of Corinth we are heading to Gozek in Turkey where we will leave the boat for the winter.

One of the most wonderful things for an Aussie wintering in Turkey is to head up to ANZAC Cove for ANZAC Day.

There is a boat harbour just 2 miles south of ANZAC called Kabe Tepe.

Last year we were the only yacht there and tied stern too the dock and paid some crazy low rate for 2 weeks.
That lets us walk daily through the area and get to know and love the battlefields.
