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!

Going Aloft! Scaling A Mast on our Sailboat! After two months, our mast has been stepped on our sailboat and this is the final ascent! Going Aloft for the final time! Kent Morrow from North Sound Rigging in Anacortes was a rock star Rigger. We converted from rod to wire--and he was super professional and so much fun. And now, our new adventure is upon us! We are a new sailing couple. If you dig our journey, we would love you to join us on our blog: www.gypseaexplorer.com or any of our social channels. Cheers!
