Monday morning required an early dive under the boat to clean the speed log impellor. That doe we set off for Sigri, still on Lesbos, heading along the south coast past the next big lagoon and Erresos, famous for womankind, courtesy of Sapho the Greek poetess whose leanings were of that inclination. It is a lovely resort we visited it by car last October I am sure it would be even lovelier in the summer but alas the wind direction would not facilitate an anchor stopover. Perhaps later in the season on our return?
It was a bit of a slog into the wind and swell, motor sailing a good part of the nine hours plus underway. We were rewarded with a lovely anchorage just South of Sigri. 46 miles under our belt that day, settled down for a swim, dinner & of course some wine!

Tuesday was a planned longish one 50 odd miles north to the island of Limnos. At 08:00 it was calm and we feared another long motor sail, boo. However that was not to be the case and had the full rig up for most of the day with the engine being called for on entering Tarrant Cove, Ormos Moudhrou on the island of Limnos. Underway for ten and a half hours today.
