When we sailed the island of Lefkas in the Ionic Sea of Greece, on the most southeastern side of the island, is an islet called Atokos. This is an uninhabited island, where on the east coast is the famous Wild Pig Beach. We took our dinghy and looked at the pigs that walked on the beach here. The pigs are wild or semi-wild pigs, probably descendants of animals that were once left on the island by humans. This happens more often on uninhabited islands, where pigs are introduced for food purposes or accidentally stranded by ship voyages. Atokos has been uninhabited for a long time, but in the past it was occasionally visited by shepherds or hunters. The pigs may have come from these. They eat a wide range of plants, seeds, roots and nuts that occur in nature. On Atokos vegetation is sparse, but pigs can eat dried grass and branches. Marine life can also be a source of food; some pigs eat washed-up seaweed or small crustaceans. Although pigs are technically wild, they often exhibit semi-tame behaviors when they come into contact with people. Their behavior depends on how much interaction they have had with visitors. They can tolerate human contact, but often remain wary. Some pigs are curious and dare to approach, especially if they smell food!

Me compré este antiguo velero para semi restaurar en el año 2018. Me fui a vivir en el, el 1 de Enero de el 2019 con planes de comenzar una vuelta al mundo en 2020. Desgraciadamente todos sabemos lo que ocurrió ese año, y no solo me quedé sin dinero, si no que no pude ni preparar el barco ni irme navegando. A día de hoy julio 2024, el velero solo lo he navegado 65h en total desde que lo compré, pero no he perdido la ilusión, y he comenzado este canal de Youtube, en el cual ahora, en vez de hacerlo solo como cuando inicie este proyecto, lo haré con mi esposa con ilusión y amor por la navegación. Subscríbete si quieres, y aprecio mucho tu Like 👍🏻🙏🏻❤️🏴‍☠️⛵⚓
