Destination: Isola d'Elba Marina Di Campo
At 14:00 we recovered the young sailors who completed their sailing course at Caprera and add them to the crew of Blue Note.
Soon after that we set sail mostly by using the "iron-spinnaker" (i.e. the Yanmar diesel engine) for Isola d'Elba where we will have a rendezvous at Marina di Campo with Nirit and Chris of Passepartout. This will be the 6th rendezvous between Blue Note and Passepartout. We first met in Dominica and Guadeloupe in the Caribbean, then Cuttyhunk near the Cape Cod canal on the US East coast then Culebra back in the Caribbean and in Jost Van Dyke.
