Latest news from the Ionian
08 June 2009
After getting replacement batteries and flares and servicing the lifejackets we have now spent a couple of weeks enjoying cruising around the Ionian Inland Sea. We have been lots of places we've been to before, plus a few we haven't previously visited.
Johns' birthday was spent in Sivota on Levkas and puncuated mid-afternoon by a charter boat dragging their anchor, picking up that of the boat next to them and then trailing the whole lot across our anchor chain. This dislodged our anchor and we had to go out into a 20kn cross wind, re-anchor and tie back to the quay again. The photo shows Kerenne nicely secured before all of this took place.
We have now moved back north and will be going on to Corfu tomorrow to prepare the boat for Bernie's daughter Claire and husband Ali joining us for a week from the 12th June.
