Nice anchorage last night with fresh bread as promised at 0800 this morning, had a walk and met the guy who owns the moorings on the other side of the bay, £6 a night cheaper and a lovely shady restaurant and he brings bread and papers!! He's the one for us next time, a definite stop in August. We motored the 15 miles to this anchorage, another island, another bay! Very nice except I made a cock up and we anchored is fairly deep water with the idea if taking a line ashore, I am no good at this maneuvre, we tied all our ropes together and of I set in the dinghy, managed to get ashore but the rope was 20 feet too short to reach the tree, so we abandoned the idea and just swung about in deep water, all seems ok and we are staying the night here, did some snorkelling and swimming and lounging about, off to Split tomorrow to try and get this anchor winch arrangement fixed, its really not good at the moment, it can only be a matter of time before I take my finger off!! Only 4 days to go, patient reader, and we will be coming home and you won't have to read my painful ramblings for 3 weeks or so.
