Position: 38:43.45N 001:24.08E - On anchor, Formentera
The one thing I always envisaged as a
liveaboard was to go swimming off the bathing platform at back of the
boat each day. It's taken eight months and three days to
finally achieve the first go. After a lot of boring motoring,
the light was fading - not to mention the crew - and the not so
accurate fuel guage was reading near zero so we diverted to
Formentera. We'd planned on visiting anyway; my mum's been and she said
the waters here are a more beautiful turquoise than in the Caribbean. The
bays here are shallow and gently sloping, perfect for
anchoring.
So, after a very late dinner
of chicken thai red curry we sat in the cockpit with a well earned G 'n' T
and I thought, "Well, it may be midnight, I may be shattered, but I may as well
go for it." Skinny dipping under the stars. Naughty, but oh so
nicey!
