50 MAKE MY DAY - Gibraltar

We move Make My Day to the east side in the Bay of Gibraltar to throw out our anchor in La Linea, closer to the Rock. Together with Baby Blue (Caroline & Johan) we visited the Rock with a hired taxi and our own very charismatic guide. There we ventured into the caves, tunnels and to some great lookouts. Of course we saw a lot of monkeys. Finishing with a visit into the Moorish castle and later did some tax-free shopping. There were some big winds coming, so we stayed on board to keep an eye on things. The Mantus anchor held well but the large swell was from the opposite direction as the wind (other than predicted). It made MMD surf and was “a little bit’ annoying. We wanted to go into the harbor but it started blowing 40 knots…. We didn’t dare. We stayed on anchor and our snubber broke a few times, so we didn’t sleep that much. Hermann (our dinghy) went 2 times upside down, with the outboard motor still attached. After the storm had passed, we move into the marina for a week and try to save the outboard. Music by Troy and Paula Haag Want to help us grow?
