Lefkas Canal to Vonitsa

25 August 2015 | Vonitsa
Nichola / just missed a storm but otherwise very nice
There we were, minding our own business pootling sedately up the Lefkas Channel when up behind us comes a 40m power boat which starts to overtake us. They overtake quite sedately, perhaps they didn't want to make too much wash for us. Which would be all well and good if there hadn't been a catamaran heading south down the channel. Even though they were past us, the power boat made no move to pull in front of us and the poor catamaran had to edge over towards the shallows with much shouting at the power boat. read more.....
