MONDAY 3rd SEPTEMBER 2007
TILOS POSITION 36:24.85N 27:23.34E
After a very disturbed and bumpy night, we decided
not to clear into Greece via Rhodes (Brent, Maureen, Stu & Beccs will
remember how long it took to clear out via Rhodes last time !), so weighed
anchor at 10.45 and followed a Greek navy ship and a couple of German yachts out
into open sea. Sea conditions quite rough, lots of white caps and
more wind head on, so engine back on, and pitching & rocking & rolling
!!! Not far out to sea, we discovered that two of the main saloon
windows had developed leaks, so, out with the towels and plastic sheeting (aka
dustbin bags) to minimise damage ! One of the shrouds chain plates also
leaking - so water, water everywhere !!
