Yesterday we managed to get through after the last Navy ship however this
made us too late to make Ismailia in time to do a single day passage so we
had to stop at the marina the night, and today we are awaiting Military
traffic before we can leave to day.

We arrived in Port Suez Yacht Club at
1945, and are just about to get some food and beer with the skippers and
crew off Assumtion (36ft Cat) and Sloop Affintiy Oceanas 470. It's a mixed
group with French Portaguise, Aussie, Seychelles, Pomi and a American, all that a side
communications are good. We are taking a couple of days here to
refuel and reprovision also an additional crew member Julie McVie joins us
in Suez.

The Last two days is just part of passing through the Suez Canal but it
becomes a little fustrating.
