FROM PAROS TO LEROS – JUNE 2023

In Paros we dropped of Michael to catch his Athens ferry and new on board came
Uwe and Florian, all experienced sailors.

Goodbye Paros

After storing our fresh provisions we headed off to Platys Gialos on the east
side of Sifnos to fill up our front fresh water tank. The mooring lines where
described to be chaotic in the small harbour and thats how it was. From Mary the
local harbour master we got one mooring line that was tied up with the
neighbours boat. Without any Meltemi gusts blowing in that was ok. Shortly after
us three monstrous catamarans moored next to us.

FROM KILADA TO PAROS – JUNE 2023

After 8 months of sailing absence, the Monday travel to the shipyard in Kilada,
Greece was full of expectations and concerns if all the tasks had been completed
by the local workman. Michael from Austria was waiting at the Bar, he has joined
me for several years and sailed with his father as a child. Now in pension he
has all the time of the world and is a good helping hand to prepare the boat for
the sailing season.

Till Friday we prepared the boat, cleaning & fixing things, giving the hull a
new shine by polishing it with the machine brought down. On Saturday 8am we
where the first to get lifted into the water.

PREVEZA – KILADA SEPTEMBER 2022

From Preveza, Ionean Sea we started our 410sm journey south down through the
canal of Lefkas, along Lefkada to the island Meganisi, island Ithaca, past
Kefalonia to Zayknthos and around the Peloponnes to Kilada.

We experienced the Peloponnese as a remote region with many archaeological
sites, medieval places, historical events and ancient mythology. The island of
heroes and gods.

VLORË – CORFU JULY 2022

We cleared out of Albania in Sarande with a agent in a record time of 1 hour
including a short provisions stop at a nearby grocery store. 10sm further south
we anchored in the shoal Butrint estuary next to a modern twin masted sailing
yacht under Saint Vincent and the Grenadines flag. All sails with electrical
winches and in the stern a huge bathing platform with technical storage
compartment.

DURRES – VLORË JULY 2022

Next day we woke up at 8am and Willy headed spontaneously off into the city to
get some missing provisions. On deck we prepared breakfast and showed up with
chocolate croissants, Albanian style with a creamy light brown and very sweet
filling. We prepared to moor off and then Llambi appeared waving to us with the
clearance document in his hand. I was pleased to have a official document
covered with stamps to hand over at our departing port in Sarande. He wished us
all the best for our journey and to us later again. I started the engine and
Willy dropped the only starboard bow mooring line and I put the forward gear in
and commanded to Uwe: Cast off the lines and we loosened the aft lines, pulled
them quickly in in an headed out of the marina berth into huge port area.





Outside we had a good breeze and sailed south along the Albanian coastline.

We entered Albania by seaway as horizon was starting to glow orange,  11.2 nm
south of light Ulcinj with a sail cruising speed of 6.9 knots. The wind  was a
perfect for the 50 sm passage from Bar to Durres, the largest port in Albania.

DALMATIA ISLANDS APRIL 2022

It‘s never too late! 

What a good start to type on my typewriter again. I love typing with my two
thumbs, the letters to create words and stories, all into my phones notes app. 

An article in the magazine ERNST #19/20 „Schreibt“ brought me back to the idea,
underlined with statement from the clairvoyant Claudia, who said to my wife
Carmen that „there is a lost writer“.
