Another lovely warm day, left anchorage and sailed to Bol, on the island of Brac, to research a sand spit we had been told about and we thought might be a nice spot to go with grandson Rufus, who at 5 needs sand!! No luck, very nice but about as much sand as Chesil Beach! all pebbles, anchored there for lunch and the West wind blew up to a 5 meaning a horrid motor into wind and waves for a couple of hours, gained great shelter in a place called Lucice, lovely inlet with mooring buoys and plenty of them, anchor winch playing up so I said to Carol that I didn't mind what they charged, lets just tie up to a buoy, well, we did and its great but they did charge us, £25 for the night, however he agreed to bring us a loaf of fresh bread in the morning included in the price!, nice snorkel, actually saw quite a lot of fish here. Off tomorrow to Split to arrange for the anchor winch to be repaired, possibly suss out anchorages for picking guestst up from the airport as well. Its all good, and boy is the wine cheap!! Bit rough but who cares at £2 a litre!
