20th September, the crew of Tioram had an early morning swim before lifting the hook and motoring/ sailing the 20 N miles to Palma Nova bay.

 

We had several attempts to anchor in the thick weed and Tony did the honourable thing---- jumped in and checked the hook was in properly so we could leave the boat and go ashore.

 

Palma Nova is a lovely bay, see blog from last year for more info---(16th/17th Sept 2010).

 

Jackie, John, Tony and I took our leaky dinghy to the shore, with wet feet, wet trousers---and finally the outboard giving up--- so lots of paddling--- but a nice evening had by all---soothed by vino.
