Busy time in Ferragudo

At anchor in Ferragudo after a couple of days in Lagos to drop off Robin who returned to Switzerland. Much busier this year than last with the summer holiday crowd in full swing, with between 40-50 boats in the anchorage. Add in the tourist boats criss-crossing at high speed and the place is a hive activity from early morning to late at night. Expect this is going to be the case everywhere in the Algarve, although there may be a drop in activity when the schools go back in September. Haven’t decided how long to stay here - much will depend on Sopromar in Lagos as the fridge sea cock needs to be replaced as the screw thread on the lid has stripped and can’t be tightened so it leaks in the open position. I am waiting for a date, but of course they are busy…At least here I am less than 10 miles away so can be there at short notice.
