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.

The Windy 25 Mirage is a miracle of sportiness, with fantastic sea-keeping qualities, providing speed in safety and comfort, thanks to its precision WinTech V hull. A teak-decked bathing platform with shower sits below a practical hatch. A large U-shaped sofa round an adaptable table can be converted into a sunbed aft of ingenious flip-up skipper's and passenger's chairs. A refined dashboard and translucent glass windscreen with narrow stainless steel profiles provide a safe and attractive helm position. Below decks there is space for the heads and a sofa that converts into a berth.

Our leather wrapped steering wheels were in poor condition after years of baking in the sun with little to no conditioner. Today was the day to recondition them and being them back to life. They aren’t perfect but much better than how they started 🤪 @sailingeriskay It’s a task worth undertaking which required much elbow grease and dedicated time to bring them back to life. I’m not a professional leather restorer but simply used techniques I had seen on YouTube. Hope you find this helpful. #sailinglife #boatprojects #shortsfeed #travelblogger #leathercleaning #makeithappen
