We spent one night in the most expensive marina in
the world.
It was quite disappointing as there were not many
services for yachties and staff not friendly.
When we arrived in the marina we were told we had
to anchor and reverse in. The Marina staff in a Rib told us exactly where
we had to drop anchor.
when we came to leave we found that the Ancor was
cought round a line to a mooring buoy opposite.
We eventually managed to get away after arguments
re. that we were not prepared to pay for a diver as it is was their
responsibility.
Katrin turned quite Italian in her communicatinos
...
Wednesday (when we left the marina) we headed for a
nice anchorage just off a beach. In the evening the wind picked up from
the wrong direction (does it not alwatys)
and we had to move to another anchorage which
turned out to be very sheltered.
We set off yeserday morning heading down the east
coast of Sardinia in order to avoid strong winds and big seas further
north.
We are now heading for Mallorca all being
well.
