Welcome to Gramvousa Island, the first landfall when sailing from the Peloponnese to Crete. This island is renowned not only for its breathtaking beaches and historic Venetian fortress but also for the mysterious shipwreck rusting along its shore. The wreck is that of the Dimitrios P, a cargo ship that ran aground near Gramvousa in January 1968. The exact cause of the stranding remains a topic of speculation. Some suggest the ship was overwhelmed by severe weather and rough seas, while others believe it was abandoned by its crew due to mechanical issues. Whatever the true story, today the wreck forms an iconic image in the turquoise waters surrounding the island.
We had to remove the tarp now! It was becoming more and more unbearable to work under it, and we assessed that it wouldn’t hold back the rain coming next week anyway☔️ Now we just need to lightly sand over the various deck fittings and seal the holes with all the different fittings we’ve removed from the deck. A big thanks to @paa.dybt.vand for helping us getting rid of the tarp 🙏🏻 We will most likely put it back on on the aft part of the deck when we start to renovate that part sometime in the coming week 🥵
