Waiting in the Argolic Gulf for a weather window to sail to the Ionion.

Previously we left Alimos Marina in Athens to begin our journey towards Albania via the Ionion, the weather was poor to cross the foot of the Peloponnese so we chose to anchor in Porto Cheli our "safe heaven" and installed our new Schenker Zen 30 watermaker. After a great nights sleep we lift the anchor and set sail for Nafplio, hoping to stern-tie to the cliff face to the south of the town and have a few days visiting the local attractions, after a lovely smooth sail, making water and seeing dolphins we anchored by the cliff as planned, unfortunately just as we finished, we notice something "not so nice" in the water. After the low wind, peaceful sail and a little pitter patter of rain, an unexpected swell rolls in to the bay and we have the worst night of our sailing life so far, being rocked from side to side all night, with the smell of sewerage thrusting up into our nostrils. We would have left the anchorage if we were not stern-tied to the cliff, as it got dark and the swell came in we knew we were stuck there until the sunrise. Once we had light, Chris was on the paddle board and releasing the lines so that we could escape this hell and return to Porto Cheli for a rest. We test out the local Geocaching site, and Chris works on getting the outboard to work better, make more water, and waterproof our spray hood then all the boys have their first swim of the season in the freezing cold water!! 0:00 Intro 0:14 Leaving Porto Cheli 1:47 Heading to Napflio Bay 3:27 Dolphins Spotted 7:40 Arriving into Napflio Bay 10:14 The Sewerage of Napflio 11:04 Leaving the Smelliest place on earth 11:45 Back in Porto Cheli for a bit of Geo Caching 15:35 Fixing the Outboard Engine Please subscribe so you don’t miss out!
