So.!!! Tomorrow I board a Lagoon 45S for delivery from Cartagena, Spain to Corfu.. hopefully winds will moderate/become more favourable before the weekend to begin the trip.
Its a leisurely run as the owner does not want her there before the 15th, April so there's no panic..

If anyone's interested you can follow me here..

After this trip I have a Sigma 33 to deliver UK - Canaries late April into early May.

As for the rest of the summer..
I am still available mid May onwards for a late Caribe - Europe run or anything else required anywhere to wherever..
Have a Grand Season Folks..

Cheers Snore..

Looks like it'll be a few days wait before sailing as the wind and sea's are on the nose.. rigging screaming in the marina and sea's reported in the 3m region.. normally no worries but on the nose.???
Yuckky..

Had some nice Gamba's con Aliho last night tho'.. sizzling platter..

While I was munching we met up with a tour guide I know (small world) and her party of Canadians in the restaurant.. seems the weathers so bad their scheduled Malaga, Gib, Cadiz has been altered to Cartagena, Alicante and Barcelona..

We are off..

Next stop Sardinia.. Maybe..

**boatman61** · 08-04-2019, 00:18

Sardinia cancelled.. currently anchored in Syracusa, got in midnight.. anchored and crashed.. figure on a couple of nights here while sorting out a minor issue then last leg to Corfu.
Spectacular and violent thunder storm out of Africa followed by 25 gusting 30 from the NW cancelled Sardinia..

But Syracusa is just fine..

**boatman61** · 10-04-2019, 00:19

So.. after 2 nights anchored in quaint and delightful Syracusa we up anchor and sail this avo on the last leg to Corfu town..
Looks like a quiet leisurely sail on the weather predictions..

Good afternoon Boatman 61. My name is Andy Schnier. I am looking for crew to take my 50 ft. Gulfstar with me in mid to late May from Martinique/St. Lucia to Bonaire for some diving/snorkeling for 7/10 days and then to Curacao for hurricane haulout. I know you are a paid skipper and just wanted to touch base in the event I am unable to line up crew with bluewater experience and may want to hire you. I can be e-mailed at schnierlaw@aol.com.

Thank you.
