Arrived safely in Msida Creek Marina at 13:00 local. The passage from Corfu logged 398nm and took just over 3 days.
Mostly it was still winds or light and on the nose (used a lot of diesel) but the last 4 hours approaching Malta saw a good 5-6 on the beam and we finally enjoyed some good sailing for our arrival. Our divided stern cabin worked well on passage but the confined space will take a bit of getting used to.
Heribert has many friends an family here and is looking after us well. The next few days should be a bit more peaceful. Apparently it is traditional to drink beer on arrival in Malta!
We now look forward to greeting Andy and then Colin ready to head off to Sicily next week. Some weather is forecast, but hot and sunny right now.
