After one week navigating 12-14hours per day. Today we just have half day trip. We moored in Croton. This is first I think the last spot is calm for anchor. I hope tonight I can sleep well. No nosy from the mast. Today is Sunday. It’s very crowded on the street. We had beers in a bar at the port, it’s cheap lol 4 beers only cost €6. 你听着岸上传来的音乐 你却孤独的漂在海上

Africo Nuovo to Santa Domenica, Italy
Navigation in Sicily and Italy is really really not interesting at all. The sea is not beautiful and can’t find any mooring place calming. I hope Greece is not like this.

Punta di Portopalo to Piazza Europa, Italy
Second days no wind or headwinds It’s getting harder and harder Once again I want finish this kind of lifestyle It’s difficult for all the people and the dog Anchor in a small abandoned marine. Many fishing boats. I think because there was a wind storm in winter destroyed every key but water there is very clear it’s rarer in Sicily There’s windy at night the anchor is very noisy I couldn’t sleep at all.

Licata to Punta di Portopalo, Italy
D2 No wind at all. At beginning is foggy. This is my first time saw fog in the sea. Then the sea like a lake. Have to use the motor all the way down.

Sciacca to Licata, Italy
We started 10.30Am. Because fix the gennaker There’s no much wind about 5-8kt. At beginning we put the gennaker on this is the first time we use it after last year it was up 1.5seconds lol Eric payed €500 to fix it. But it doesn’t works good as we’re expecting because it’s too small for our boat. So we put down it changed the other sails. It’s working perfectly. Afternoon the wind getting upwards and we got about 12kt. Because the wind was directly behind us, we sailed wing-on-wing. Just before we arrived scicca the auto pilot has problems. After moored Eric found some part didn’t connected then fixed it. He’s the hero as always lol First night anchor was not comfortable it was many waves not wind. I was almost rolled on bed.
