This is more like we expected from Estonia, lovely picturesque old town, nice shops, we stocked up at Solaris Food Store which had everything we needed and some local stuff to try and plenty holes in wall so stocked up on Euros too. Last night we strolled the old town which is 10 mins from our berth and went into a show restuarant called Kazacthok (if I have spelt it right!) which was superb. Also some nice bars where you can sit and watch the world go by. Will stay here the weekend and then head west to Hiumaa and Saaremaa.
 
Got in early yesterday morning after a slow and gentle sail along the coast, winds were S or SW and mainly less than 10k. You have to call in here before entering and it took us an hour to raise someone on VHF. View from boat not exactly spectacular, we are near the ferry and cruise ship terminals but apart from that everything great. And with a bit of luck we might be able to get our sprayhood repaired here as nowhere in Narva that we could find had any facility for stiching.
