Sailing Eriskay: Drone Down! Peloponnese Here We Come.

Episode 24: Sailing, Rounding the Peloponnese part 1 | Drone crashed This week on Sailing Eriskay Cass and Shelly sail from Zakinthos to the Peloponnese to start their journey around the horn and into the Aegean Sea. We sail almost every day this week and didn’t stop for much. We stayed at free anchorages every time, had a first time experience sailing wing on wing without a spinnaker pole and had a crash GYBE to save our drone! This was an excellent practice for a man overboard as it was treated the same, Shelly spotted the Drone for Cass so he could focus on captaining the boat through the GYBE and back to the drone which had malfunctioned and got stuck in hover mode. So we had to immediately go back and pick it up. The captain did an excellent not only managing a controlled about face GYBE without having the Boom slam but also piloted the drone to the safe hands of Shelly. Watch as he steers the boat with his foot and controls the drone with his hands. We then continue our sail down stopping at the following anchorages. Anchorages: Katakolon 2 days for weather at anchor we didn’t go ashore Kyparisia 1 night Stern to town quay, up the hill we went on the hunt for medium sweet Greek wine which is so yummy 🤤 found great prices Pilos 1 night anchor GIALOVA anchorage, great place for provisions but a bit of a walk to the grocery up there hill. We were also stopped by port police as we were leaving and even though we only stayed at the town quay in Pilos to provision (total of 2 hours) they required us to check in. Kolyvri 1 night anchor, nice quiet bay by ourselves we didn’t go ashore Koroni 1 night anchor, quaint town we didn’t go ashore Join us on our journey as we continue rounding the Peloponnese and visit some very beautiful ports along the way.
