We’d had bread and croissants delivered to the boat early Monday morning and as we sat in the cockpit eating the croissants we heard Mark shouting.  We looked up to find a catamaran – the local ferry – heading straight for us! Two people were on board and they were busy tying their dinghy on the back of their boat leaving nobody on the helm. Mark was shouting to the two tying the dinghy as the cat was in front of him. They quickly put the boat full astern missing us by millimetres! Blimey……we’re not even safe at anchor!
