We got vaccinated some days ago here in Sicily. Thanks to the Italians treating us as foreigners with so much friendliness and vaccinate us without being resident. Thank you!
Today we are leaving this friendly island. A bit with a sad eye, but also happy to go sailing. We had a good time here. Great would be to visit Sicily without the ‘C’ thing.
We are heading to Carloforte on the southwestern tip of Sardinia. Our route is nearly direct 350nm equating to 2days, 15 hours.
Weather forecast is mostly light winds, except for the end. We hope to get into Carloforte before it blows.
We plan to sneak along the Sicilian coastline westbound. But have to be careful. There are some shallow areas. On the plus side, on this route we have less ship traffic.
The heavy ship traffic requires constant attention 24h.
And… our intrepid Navigator Remy will help us to make excellent decisions.
