30 hours, no issues. Bumpy start with 1.5 meter swell mostly on the nose. When we cleared the island and turned for Menorca, the swell sat better, and we switched off the engines and sailed at 7kts for a couple of hours. Then it died, alas, and we motored for the rest of the way. Swell disappeared and it was a nice smooth ride through the night. Zero moon, so dark dark, but the stars are better, and you can see other lights more easily when on watch.
Now in Mahone Marina. Slightly lost on arrival as there are many boats all over the place in numerous Marinas. Lovely harbor, lovely town, excellent place all around.
