A winter in the boat yard at El Masnou and Blue Magic is looking amazing.
Fantastic new paintwork and copper bottom by the yard and all coordinated by our brilliant agent Carlos at El Tinglado de Perico.

Holidays began mid May with a lovely week exploring Barcelona with Katie and Charlie.

After waving goodbye to them a week later Blue Magic departed Barcelona for Soller in Mallorca arriving early June.

A lovely week in Soller, Andraix and Camp de Mar with Lisa and Mark, Rob and Julie and Mike and Sue.

We were then reunited with Paul and Derry on the beautiful new Jackamy to enjoy some more cruising along the coast of Mallorca.
We arrived in Menorca late June after an unexpected night crossing to get out of a nasty swell that was throwing us around in the anchorage on the East coast of Mallorca.

June and July have been fun times with lots of guests enjoying holidays on both Blue Magic and Jackamy.
We have caught up with Amy and Peter, Jack, Lola and Harry and Jayne and Steve, all guests on Jackamy.
Paul and Derry left us mid July and are now in Sicily.

We have remained in Menorca to welcome Sandra and David and Lynn and Lee for their hols followed by Simon who is currently with us for a week.

There will be great excitement next Saturday when Adam and Kirsty, Amalia, Riley and Astin arrive on the Island for their holidays.
Riley has been counting down the days for several months !
His mission is to swim to shore from the boat to go and buy an ice cream.
I think we might have to climb some cliffs too !
We love adventures with the grand children.

We have continued to move around Minorca discovering new anchorages hidden away from the swell which regularly changes direction !
It's a lovely island and it's been a very relaxing time just pottering and enjoying the boat.

We aim to leave mid Aug to head for Sicily via Sardinia to be reunited with Jackamy for the winter.

We like to be together !
