At anchor off Corfu old town. Went in to Old Corfu town for lunch. Also organised Greek sim for data.

Returned to the boat and had a swim over to a nearby NZ flagged catamaran. Had a discussion about sailing from Aegina back to Corfu. They suggested it would be hard work to cover the 350 odd nautical miles in 7 days against the prevailing winds. Based on that advice I plan to leave the boat somewhere in the Ionian, fly to Athens and get a ferry to Aegina around Aug 2 and return with Jude to the boat on Aug 5.

Pon cooked an excellent red chicken curry and Helen prepared a walnut and pear salad for dinner on the boat.
