Flat worms exquisite?
09 June 2014
Monday 9 June 2014: Flat worms exquisite?
After Francis had an early morning swim finding tube worms, sea urchins, many species of fish, encrusting algae, big black sponges, and other great underwater delights such as an exquisite flat worm, see photo, he released the line from the rock and we got underway to our next destination: Ciftlik bay.
Time for more sailing lessons for Chris as she did her biggest stint on steering and being able to hold Clio on course on a close-hauled course, and even steered us through a tack. After a couple of hours with storm clouds building behind us we reached Ciftlik bay and anchored just off the beach. A beautiful spot and on a warm sunny day only one thing for Chris to do, dive straight in off the deck. Cloi was launched again with plastic container as seat for rowing master Francis, to get us ashore to check out the restaurants and markets to stock up on some supplies.
