After a grueling wait, interrupted only by our nice visit on board and ashore, the engine is running again, thanks to "our" professional excellent mechanic Dimitris from Patras. But before we could leave, we had to weather a storm (54 knots, equivalent to 10 wind forces!). It caused considerable damage to the fishermen's jetties and also in the marina.
On Sunday we set off, heading south. Meanwhile we are already more than 100 nautical miles further and approach the western southern tip of the Peloponnese, where we can hopefully turn east and sail around the capes Tenaro and Maleas into the Aegean Sea. Destination: The island of Leros off the Turkish coast, just northwest of Rhodes. There we have a winter berth on land.
