Recently for some reason my feed has shifted over to sailing stuff again. And with shifted over, I mean more like flooded. That is always the deal, if you watch one kind of video, the next one is already next in line.
I guess my feed has a valid point, because since Spring has started the idea of heading over towards the water is pulling on me again. The funny thing is with the weather shifting to better stuff, the wind has also died. I have already thought on hitting the (ice cold) water here in the Netherlands, but with hardly any wind and water below the 10 degrees Celsius also lets that idea disappear with lightspeed again.
So the only thing to do now is look back at the previous year of sailing when we slept in a bay on Kefalonia Greece somewhere. I love sleeping on the water which is not really attached to land, as it gives something special. In the night the boat is just rocking around a with the little waves which makes you fall asleep in an instant.
In the morning the first thing you do is just jump out out of the boat to wake up with a little bomb on the water. Making coffee on the back of the deck with the morning sunshine on the water, ow man....this is just the dream.
Staying in place
This anchoring in this small bay was not the easiest if you ask me. As a beginning sailor I am not the best at anchoring at all. So putting up an anchor from the bow on the far distance at 5 times the depth of the water seems logical.
But on the aft side swimming two land lines to shore to tie them up to big rocks on land was new to me. Helping each other a bit with a dinghy and running around on land to tie them up was a multi person task. With also makes you realize again that being on the boat with just two people can bring a lot of challenges on there.
I have noticed it a couple of times already with docking in marinas as well. With more people it just makes it a lot easier with tossing lines and having the option to compensate something when there is a quick task that needs to be done. After all, boating is dealing with the current circumstances, and they just change a lot very fast all the time.
This video was afer all of that was done though. Chillmode was there and there was time and place to just have some fun and fool around in that beautiful bay. The place here is called Foki bay and it is located near to the fishing town of Fiskardo on the island of Kefalonia in Greece. There are so many islands here to discover and learn about!
I'm really looking forward to boating around again this year, hopefully there will be tons of boating moments to find again this year!
