    Gibraltar, our Hotel California

    Do we stay or do we go?

    Still very happy on the boat in Tanja marina but now considering going back to Gibraltar for the repair. The work on the boom has ground to a halt as the man from Rif Mountains was too busy. So work was not going forward.

    Tangiers Morocco

    The northern most tip of Africa so close to Europe is full of interesting sights and tastes influenced by the native Rif, Berber, French, Spanish and American. It is a thriving modern city where you can buy almost everything.

    Scotland to Morocco

    In the last days of August we left UK to head for the Carribbean via the Canary islands. That was the general plan anyway! Always bending to the wind with Captain Neptune and to the general adventurous nature of our lives at sea.

    Back again in Scotland

    Sailing across the Irish sea and then around the Mull on a favourable tide. But remember: do not hurry, this is a pleasure craft! So let’s anchor for the night. There will be less wind tomorrow.

    Bye Newry Ireland and thank you

    The last days in Newry pass quickly with pleasant walks in the countryside. The boat is still moored alongside the Albert Basin at the end of Newry canal right in the center of the city. Thank you people of Newry and Mourne for your help during the winter.
