Hi
Enjoyed the trip.
Weather and winds could have been kinder but there you go.
The trip involves some long legs if you want to get it done in a week, so it is important to get going in the morning and take lunch during the journey.
We experienced some strong winds up to F7 with moderate sea state.
Some of this was on the nose so we suffered some slamming which does get wearing. We changed course to ease this.
A half day in Delphi was a nice break in the trip which we all enjoyed.
Waterproofs were important in some heavy rain so do take a light set. We only had 2 pairs of over-trousers so had to swap them round for watch keeping.
Ferries are good at avoiding you but cargo ships will not change course even in very open seas.
Will give more details of our
passage plan if you wish.
John
