Starting from Crete in early May, we plan to explore the Cyclades until the Meltemi kicks in. Then at the end of June we'll make our way close to Athens to leave the boat in August ready to Jet off to our daughter's wedding. We will return in September and, return to Crete - circumnavigating if the weather permits - returning to Agios Nikolaos for the winter.

Setting Off

We had a very frustrating 3 weeks of living in a dusty dirty boat yard with people grinding noxious substances off their boats all around us - which then blew straight onto Rosa. But after 3 weeks, the damage was fixed well and we went back in the water with no hitches.
Since then we've had a heavy schedule of cleaning, re-mounting sails & ropes, socialising and drinking - don't you feel sorry for us?
But now it's all done, feet are itching and the sea is waiting again. The weather has been glorious for a couple of weeks now and we want to take advantage before strong winds come in again. So tomorrow(Thursday) we sail to Spinalonga, hang around for a couple of days and then off to Analfi (or if weather not calm to Astipalia.
