Bellissima final day

Gentle 8-10 kts for a couple of hours, dropping off around midday, so motored the last few hours in warm sunny weather.

Belisimma - Giglio to Riva Di Traiano

Great sail, close hauled 16-24 kts Two reefs and reduced genoa. Arrived after sunset with difficult waves. Kept dry and warm until one big one decided to wash over us all as we approached harbour 🌊

Bellissima Day 4 - to Elba (Port Azzura)

Fantastic day sail. One of the best. 5am departure in light drizzle, with 10-12 knots. Rain soon abated, and we cruised into the day reaching the whole way with goods winds and small waves. A perfect sailing day, with Thomas and Sabine providing great company.
