At 08:45 we set off for Lesvos 44 miles away.
It was a hard beat at 4 knots to clear the Xios channel.
Underway for just over 9 hours & only managed to sail the first 2.
Motor sailing the rest of the way.
At one point I had to call up a LBC who kindly altered course to clear behind us.
Koplos Yeras is a large landlocked bay on the south east of Lesvos
Scala Loutra is just off the narrow entrance to the right . The navigation is safe enough by day but best avoided at night.
We arrived and anchored at 18:00.
There are now yellow marker buoys in the south of the bay we anchor in. Looks like a fish or mussel farm.
There is still room to anchor in behind it though under the church on the hill .
Dinner on board that night and explore tommorrow
