8:45am Thursday May 29th

Depart Solenzara or Maddalena Islands, Sardinia. Lights winds until we approached the Bonifacio straight, where the winds picked up to 25 knots westerly winds. We hoisted the kite before the straight under light northerly winds and then ran light sails to blast across the straight to the Maddalena islands.

 

15:45hrs Dropped anchor for late lunch at Cala Conticcio.
