We have an amazing and talented group in Marina di Ragusa! Thanksgiving was celebrated in style; 5 cruising cooks prepared the most amazing 4 course Thanksgiving Dinner for 53 cruising folk and what a feast and with such style. Flowers were picked at dawn to dress the tables which were decorated beautifully and the courses served with precision. Dr. Tom was the wonderful chief chef. He took over the kitchen of a bar and cafe in the marina and with his very able helpers made a feast to envy.

Vessel Name: Njord of London
Vessel Make/Model: Malo 39 Classic
Crew: Vic Farhi & Clare Harrison
About: Learnt to sail together and the first sailing experience was in Lanzarote in 2005. We then bought Mandarin, a Bavaria 39 and in June 2012 bought Njord, a Malo 39 from the Baltic.
Extra: As attributed to Mark Twain: Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bow lines, sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Two weeks of blissful sailing gently around the Ionian in 2019. High season for chartered and family holidays yet we still managed to find some less frequented bays to drop the hook
