If you followed above link you will have noticed the zig-zagging of Lunara and her short flight above land. We have a small issue at the moment with our Iridium and its built in GPS. I don’t know why, but somehow the position is occasionally many miles off reality – sorry. We are trying to find the reason for this problem.
Roda de Bera, Catalonia/Spain
We sailed a southerly course and then turned slowly west. In total 180nm. The first 3rd of the trip was very fast with solid waves and wind from behind.
The Beach is just across the street
La Grande Motte
Surprisingly interesting architecture driven by the then president Charles de Gaulle in the late 60s. Things look a bit dated today, but are a charming experimental design in concrete. I like the concept that everyone should have a view of the sea and cars are removed from the waterfront. People first!
Port Camargue
We continue to stay in Port Camargue for the time being. We might transfer to La Grande Motte in October for repairs 🙁
