Heck,
the weather was fickle. A multi stop tour of everywhere you can stop in South Cyprus, was undertaken. We really did try and get to Latchi (check-out port), within the three weeks, but not a chance, and the weather window further delayed to hop back to Turkey.
Kiti was a bit of a port of refuge. Nasty big chop on the nose, so got out of it when the opportunity showed. Karen was having zero fun, although she did say "keep going, let's get it over with" - not exactly the start I wanted for her :-(.
Next day calmed and we motored the remainder to the snooty expensive Limassol Marina.
Next day to Paphos as the weather wouldn't let us entertain the idea of rounding the Akamas peninsular for another day. In Paphos we fouled the anchor twice, unbelievable. Debris and massive chain everywhere. Nice place, but not for yachts.
Next day, we rounded fine and enjoyed the trip the Latchi harbor. Lovely place, they even had the annual fish festival while we were there. Free fish, salad and beer. Nice.
Time to check-out of wonderful Cyprus.
