The Crazy Waters Bridge in Chalkis sits at the narrowest point between Evia and the mainland, where the strait is only about 38 meters wide. Because so much water is forced through this tiny opening, extremely strong currents are created — the reason sailors call it the “Crazy Waters.” The bridge is in the middle of the city and opens only once a day to avoid disrupting the constant road traffic. Boats may only pass at slack tide, the brief moment every six hours when the water is calmest. That’s why sailors often go through at strange times like 1:30 or 3:00 a.m. While waiting, boats are not allowed to tie up along the quay because the turbulence is so strong that it would be dangerous. Instead, everyone must anchor in the bay and wait for instructions from Port Control. We anchored there with about fifteen other boats and waited until slack tide at night. At midnight, Port Control suddenly called all boats in order — we were number three. Passing the bridge in the dark was surreal: strong currents below, quiet city lights above. The bridge didn’t lift; it actually slid sideways into the quay walls, disappearing completely. Once through, we moored safely just 100 meters further in the city. Experiencing this natural phenomenon at night, in such a narrow and powerful channel, was something I will not quickly forget!

As Super-yachts go, they do not come much nicer than this, built at the famous Privilege Shipyard in Les Sables-d’Olonne in France, graced with an envious pedigree of a long line of quality built catamarans. There really are very few catamarans in this class built to this kind of standards these days and a rarely available example. With build times stretching to over two years with many manufacturers, there is a great chance to get what you want now before your too old to enjoy it! Her beautiful lines and curves give her an outstanding first impression and being a catamaran space on board compared to a conventional superyacht of comparable length is mind-blowing. With her white sails billowing and feeling the powerful surge as she leaps forward, she really is a sight that stirs the unbridled passion of any sailor Being an immensely sought after vessel, she will be sold quickly to the first discerning buyer, that will immediately fall in love with her. Combined ultimate luxury coupled with a performance for a catamaran this size little is compromised in the construction and interior finished and attention to detail is second to none. This is a true ocean crosser, ideal to explore the world's oceans in comfort and enjoy the adventure of a lifetime. Professionally Skippered from new she has always been in safe hands and her current owner has had no expense spared in keeping her in first class condition. This one is fully loaded with every option and more! This amazing catamaran is based on mainland Spain within a reasonable driving distance of both Alicante and Murcia Airports. Lift out facilities are close by for an inspection and all services. This is a rare opportunity to purchase such an amazing yacht, don’t let this one slip through your fingers…. Year: 2011

In front of Marseille are Les Îles (the Frioul Islands) which is a rocky archipelago with sandy beaches, hiking trails and a rich flora and bird world. One of the islands is Île d'If, known for its 16th century castle and prison, it is the place where the book 'The Count of Monte Cristo' by Alexandre Dumas is located is playing. When we sailed into one of the bays of the islands, called Calanque de Morgiret, I was blown away by it’s beauty! It was almost 360 degrees surrounded by the white walls of the Calanques, the water was crystal clear, almost transparent. We anchored here and stayed here for 3 days.
