Only 96nm to our next waypoint North of Zakionthos.
We had been sailing since we left! Every combination of sails has been used, and we've had some fantastic sailing. A very thorough shakedown! Lovely SW'ly winds, and rolling following seas.
But, good things come and go! In the last hour, all the wind died, and it started raining. So we've put the engine on. Hopefully it wont have to be for the duration of the trip. But until then, now is a good time for a rig check!
