Destiny Tastes Med Waters For The First Time

15 July 2011 | Just off Gibraltar

Hi All,

We have made it to the Med!

Took us a while to break through in to Gibraltar as we had strong winds right from the direction we wanted to go. Unfortunately, a sail yacht can not sail straight in to the wind so we have had to take our way up through the heads.

We have had very strong winds for four of the last five days, with yesterday being the only day where it calmed down a bit. At 6am this morning it all came back and we are again until very little sail and motoring to get us through it.

We will not be calling in Gibraltar this time in order to save some time and get to Palma.

Will update some time soon if we get the chance!

Cheers Crew of Destiny!
