Our first visit from an EU Customs this season. They were very friendly and were obviously training a new hire. Very little English, so communication was slow, until a local boater stepped in to translate. They took our papers, but said not to worry as there was nothing wrong. They returned later with a document that effectively gives our boat another 18 months before we have to take it out of the EU again, to avoid having to import it.<br />
<br />
A German boater went by with a foot pump in his hand. I asked him if he was looking for parts. He said yes, but the store had no parts and he was going to have to buy a new pump. I had the part he needed and was happy to give it to him. He returned with a great bottle of wine. Sandra later saw it for sale. It cost way more then the part. <br />
<br />
Our most expensive marina of the season at 55 Euro per night. We stay one night.<br />
<br />
No pictures, but we will likely return next year in off season, as it is a very nice marina. <br />

We enjoy three days of light winds and warm temperatures. Our last swimming of the season.<br />
<br />
Lovely public beaches, busy by day and deserted by nightfall. Tiny marina, for shallow draft boats. One restaurant, one bar and tiny convenience store.<br />
<br />
The area was an iron mining and smelting area for centuries. Slag was meters high, covering an Etruscan Necropolis. The area is now a national heritage site, with an interpretation center and tours.<br />

The ones on the S side were too crowded, the one on the N side had poor holding ans was too exposed to the wakes of the parade of passing ships and power boats. So we carried on to Portoferraio.<br />
<br />
Nelson is reported to call Portoferraio "the best small harbor" and it is very protected, with very good holding. However, he did not have to put up with the constant ferry wake from dawn to after dusk and, when the wind was from the N their exhaust fumes. We spent as much time as possible ashore.<br />
<br />
Fortunately there is much to see. Remains of Roman Villas. Fortifications built by Cosmo Medici (Cosmopolitan is derived from his name). Two small palaces occupied by Napoleon Bonaparte, while he was exiled here (one he designed and supervised the construction).<br />
<br />
<b><u>The main Roman Villa overlooks the harbor, but not much is left of the structure. </u></b><br />

It was not to be, so we motored to Peurto Azzurro. Arrived early and found a good spot at the head of the bay. It was a patch of mud in an area that include a lot of weed. As the day wore on the anchorage filled to beyond capacity. The boats were "armpit to armpit". The late arrivals did not have room to back up on their anchors. Many dropped anchor, put out all their fenders, then went ashore!!! We dug out our fenders and went to bed fearing the worst. Lucky for everyone the nights remained dead calm for the time we were here.<br />
<br />
We explored the bay in the dingy and walked the town. Very pretty, but not much in the way of museums or cathedrals (made me happy, but the Admiral not so much). <br />
<br />
Went out for dinner at a restaurant next to our anchorage. It had it's own dock and after a steep climb were treated to an outdoor table with a stunning view of the bay. The meal was first class, but made a significant dent in the budget.<br />

The long term forecast indicated that another NW gale would arrive about the time we would want to hop to Elba. So we decide to take advantage of the calm between the two weather fronts and motored directly from Puerto Veechio to Golfo Della Lacona.<br />
<br />
On the way we pass the Isla Monte Cristo. Now a nature preserve. The island's fame is derived from the fact that it provides the setting for part of the novel <i>The Count of Monte Cristo</i>.<br />
<br />
We had planned to arrive at dusk, but were delayed by adverse wind and current. It was pitch dark as we entered the bay. The moon would not rise for some time, so we felt our way in, using radar, AIS, GPS, anchor light sightings and depth sounder, to the edge of the crowded anchorage, setting the anchor about 23:00.<br />
<br />
Moved into the anchorage the next day, tried to dingy ashore, but found no public beach available to leave the dingy. <br />

We left early to cross the channel before the forecast high winds at midday. Still had plenty of wind, on the Beam, resulting in 6 kts+ crossing the channel to Corsica, sailing as a sloop. In the shadow of the island we enjoy a more leisurely pace up the East Coast to Golfe De Porto Vecchio. <br />
<br />
We settle in to wait out a 3 day blow from the NW. The golfe has many anchorages. We opt for the Baie De Stagnolu. It is shallow and very weedy. We spend a long time making sure our anchor is well set, with lots of scope, then added a 20 lb kellet. The first night passed peacefully, except for the 1 am fireworks. The next day the wind was up and all but three boats dragged and left the anchorage. We did not drag initially and thought we would be OK. Not to be. We dragged in the mid pm. Reset the anchor. Dragged again in the late afternoon. Had to raise the anchor in winds gusting to gale force. A backbreaking, slow process with a manual windless. Then an upwind slog against wind and short choppy seas to the Porto-Vecchio anchorage. Bang, the anchor set immediately, in the mud and sand. We added the 20 lb kellet and backed off to 10 to 1 scope, using all but a few feet of our 250 ft of 3/8 in chain. The next 2 days are spent on board, waiting out the storm. Not one boat in this anchorage moved an inch.<br />
<br />
We go ashore the 4th day to do some shopping.<br />

The wind picked up and the seas were getting uncomfortable. The forecast was for moderation in the afternoon, so we ducked into a very rocky bay behind Punta Li Canneddi to wait it out. Sure enough the wind died and seas moderated and we motored the rest of the way to Bahia Raparata.<br />
<br />
While diving the anchor saw an interesting shape on the bottom. Went down to take a better look. Someone had lost their outboard motor. Too long ago, based on the growth, for salvage.<br />

The grocery store is right in the marina. We caught the bus going in the wrong direction and got an inadvertent tour of the coast, before returning to the marina.<br />

Very busy, with local boats, during the day, it is quiet after sundown. Crystal clear water, we see our anchor clearly in 10 meters of water.<br />

We were just ahead of a NW front, that was forecast to bring gale force winds for 3 to 4 days. The right direction, but too much of a good thing for us.<br />
<br />
We sight Sardinia at dawn and arrive at the marina Ser Mar early in the day. We wait out the Gale for the next 5 days, doing laundry, shopping and boat projects.<br />

We originally set out for one of the Calas at Los Llanes, to join Juno, with Kealoha V, following right behind us. We were enjoying the sail so much we decided to go on to Cala De Addaya. This all weather anchorage is very peaceful, with a small marina and village. We enjoy a quit day exploring the long narrow bay in the dingy and sleepy village. Kealoha V and Juno arrive the next day. Juno is laying up at the marina to await the arrival of crew.<br />
<br />
With sadness we part with Kealoha V as we continue East and they turn West to make their way to Gibraltar, in preparation for crossing the Atlantic this coming winter. We will be following their travels with interest and look forward to our next "crossing of the wakes".<br />
<br />
For some reason I cannot find my pictures of this lovely place. Will update the post when they are found. <br />

Still had a bit of a slog the last few miles.<br />
<br />
SV Kealoha and SV Juno (originally seen in Son Saura) arrived before us. Hosted everyone for dinner.<br />
<br />
Enjoyed a long dingy trip into Mahon and toured the fort next to the anchorage.<br />

It is a great anchorage in a large protected bay, with a fair sized town. Yet it is not overly touristy. The buoys were only 19 Euro per night, including showers and access to potable water to fill our tanks. We also topped up our fuel tanks at the nearly dock. <br />
<br />
No noticeable swell, but significant surging, that was felt when tied to the fuel or water docks. We broke two fair-leads, a teak platform, a spring line and popped a fender as we refueled and filled our water tank. Sigh!!!<br />
<br />
Our buoy was the closest to the dingy dock, so it was easy for us to catch up on laundry and shopping.<br />
<br />
Experienced biblical rain storm while out shopping. Within minutes there was at least 6 inches of water in the gutters. Stopped for coffee at outdoor cafe. Sat under awning, with our feet in water overflowing from gutter onto the sidewalk. We just made it back to the boat when a hail storm hit!<br />
<br />
While we were doing our laundry one of the washing machines exploded it's glass front all over the place. Luckily, we and the only other patron in the facility were out of the direct line of fire. Later, a young man came in and emptied 11 adult sized life jackets from the machine, that was designed to hold about 5 at most. One life jacket was damaged. The young man was joined by his boss from the boat rental outlet across the alley. They removed all but the damaged life-jacket and called the laundry owner. It seemed like they were trying to get the laundry owner to pay for the damaged life-jacket. I took the laundry owner aside and advised him that there had been 11 jackets in the machine when it exploded. As we left the police were arriving to sort it out. <br />
<br />
Went to leave after a couple of days. Got a half hour out of the harbor and the prop stopped turning. Motor was running and we were in gear, but no thrust. Did we loose the prop? Did the transmission fail? We put up the sails and let the tiny breeze drift us back to our buoy. Our first attempt failed and we anchored to allow the yacht club dingy to tow us back into position. <br />
<br />
The mechanic arrived the next day. He quickly diagnosed the problem as a failed "dampener plate". It is between the motor and transmission. He would require us to have the boat next to the dock so that he could lift the motor with a crane to remove and replace the part. This was going to be expensive. While the mechanic was looking for the part we talked to Mike and Cate. Cate's very mechanically inclined, having helped her father rebuild classic cars. She felt we could do it without moving the boat to the dock. The mechanic could not find the part. Mike and Cate arrived. Together we removed the old part. I found a new part online and had it shipped express from the UK. I installed the new part. We paid the mechanic for the diagnosis, advising him we had fixed the problem. I do not think he believed us until he saw us motor out of the harbor. He was in his boat coming in as we were going out. He stopped his boat and stared at us with a funny expression on his face.<br />
<br />
In spite of all our challenges here we would return.<br />
<br />
<u><b>Serge damage. </b></u><br />

<br />
We stayed two nights, on two different buoys, not liking the first due to exposure to the swell. It was good we moved for a second reason. A brush/forest fire broke out on the second day on that side of the bay. We had a" ringside" seat as 3 helicopters and a water bomber fought the blaze, along with ground crews we could not see, but whose sirens we could hear. We avoided most of the smoke, but the boats on the other side were engulfed much of the day.<br />

Started out as a great sail, making 6 kts, but had to motor the last half.<br />
<br />
We selected this anchorage primarily to catch up with friends Mike and Cate, abourd Kealoha V. Took 3 attempts to get anchored, as the anchorage was crowded, with patches of weed to foul the anchor.<br />
<br />
Spent almost a week here catching up with Mike and Cate, doing boat projects and visiting Palma.<br />
<br />
While in Palma I was inadvertently captured on a video that was published on U-Tube. I found out when I got an e-mail from Tod, who we sailed with in California and Mexico in 2007 and 2008. How he identified me in my split second appearance, after some 8+ years, is astonishing. <br />

Arrived early and got a good spot near shore. The anchorage filled up as the day went on and we were glad of our early arrival.<br />
<br />
Spent 5 days in this lovely anchorage, exploring with the dingy, went ashore for lunch and ice cream and had "Sundowners" with new acquaintances Jill and Phil on SV "Deliverance". They are Brits, in their 70's, have circumnavigated the world and now spend each season in the Med. We really enjoyed their company. They were waiting for their 20s something Grandson to join them.<br />

Sandra had her first swim in the Med!!! It took several days of 30 C temperatures for her to brave the 20 + C water. I have been enjoying swimming many of our days at anchor.<br />

A Cala with a nice beach, small resorts and tiny commercial district. Spent the remainder of the first day on board relaxing in the 30 C heat. The next day we took out the dingy exploring the Cala and had lunch on shore.<br />

Ibiza has an old walled town that has been occupied for thousands of years and is an UNESCO heritage site.<br />
<br />
One highlight was the Necropolis Museum. This grave site has been in use since Carthaginian times and also includes graves from the Punic and Roman occupations. The museum does an excellent job of tracing the customs of each society.<br />
<br />
The walled town and the Cathedral are also worth the hike up to the top. The views are awesome.<br />
<br />
It was Sunday and some things were closed, but the Museums were free. <br />

Big swells, but no waves. Little wind on the nose. The best spots are all taken up with buoys, with very few boats on them. The remainder of the bay is fairly crowded with anchored boats in dicey holding. We try to anchor in several spots, before we are satisfied. The next day we were told to move as we were too close to the unoccupied buoys, so we had to do it all over again. We were ready to leave, but decided to try one more time. the anchoring gods smiled and we ended up firmly hooked in a good spot.<br />
<br />
This is a party town for young Europeans. We found the tourist info, but found we know more about the cultural sites. The were set up to advise on the various bands and dance venues.<br />
