Beating the Mistral Winds - Sailing L'Attitude - Ep 15

In this episode we attempt to set off from Menorca with the aim to catch the front of the Mistral that was due to blow that day. However, we epically fail and end up motoring the entire way to Mallorca. Even seasoned helmsmen can't get it right sometimes!! Sorry Addy... Once there however, all is forgotten as we stop in at Port de Pollenca to watch the mighty All Blacks game and then head up and around the northern tip, known as Cap Formentor. The weather is starting to turn as we see clouds roll in, which adds to the mysterious, dinosaur-park-like landscape that is the NW coast of Mallorca. More of an adventure coast than a cruising coast, this rugged coastline has only a few anchorages, many of which provide protection from sweet nothing. But you put up with the rolling because your backdrop is just out of this world incredible. Getting on land is an absolute MUST! SO join us on a few exercise excursions this week as we make the most of the contrasting scenery between land and ocean.
