Strong Mistral to the East of us.



We are lucky to sail to the west of a strong Mistral blowing south in the Golf de Lion.

We wish all our friends and families a Merry Christmas!

We thank all of you who listened patiently to our boat stories. 2019 will definitively be a better year.

All of you, whose crewing and travel plans were trashed due to ‘electrical difficulties’ onboard Lunara, we thank you for your understanding.

We thank everyone who shared our enthusiasm for french champagne and back to back serial parties onboard 🙂

We had good times in 2018 – nevertheless.

Susanne and Martin + LUNARA

Arrived in Ibiza, Cala PorroigArrived in Ibiza, Cala Porroig

30 hour sail with variable to excellent winds. One Thunderstorm at night which we detoured around its southern rim.

Anchoring for the first time was troublesome related to issues with the windlass. We abandoned the maneuver and sorted out the technical trouble. About our second attempt we have this beautiful doodle Lunara generated on the chartplotter – see photo. Diving to the anchor showed it wedged in a rock crevesse in 5meters with the chain wrapped around a bolder 🙁

We were lucky to get our gear up in one piece. Finally, 3 hours later, we got the anchor down properly and relaxed withsome bubbly drink.

This morning we woke up to a sizable thunderstorm front moving through the anchorage.

We plan to stay here for the next two days and relax.
