HIDING FROM THE HEAT!!!

The wild life Has come to have a look at us!

We welcome Mark and Erika
on board Josephine

Mooring in Goat tree Bay
putting a chain around a tree

Well another few weeks since we last added to the blog little excuse except it is very HOT and we are looking for places to hide!
    Left a great picture taken by Erika whilst on board Josephine whilst anchored for lunch A large turtle came to have a swim around!!






We welcome Mark and Erika on Josephine at Ay Eufimia a favorite habour of ours photo taken by George .

   In our quest to find some where cool as the sea breeze has been switched off and the town quays and ports are very hot we go looking for anchorage with cool water to swim in and as some are small we need to tie to a tree!




 As Ray said this involves some one swimming with a rope or a chain to put around a tree or rock!
  Guess who swim's yes as in the photo it is Mandy here aided by Mark.
   We slowly approach the bay and pick a likely spot with a suitable tree/rock and move away then reverse towards area with Mandy letting the anchor out Ray helming the boat when the anchor has dug in and we are close to the shore Mandy runs to the stern of Josephine picks up end of rope or chain and fender that has already been prepared before we started this menover once around the tree/rock Ray then pulls the rope tight Mandy swims back to boat and collects another line from the other side of the boat and repeats the exercise and we then tighten the anchor and we are safe!

         Today we are going north to Preveza to explore where we may winter Josephine

                             good -bye for now Mandy and Ray
