Corinthian Canal


What a hoot! I did tell them what the wind would be but didn't explain in detail what that actually meant….. Forecast is the same for a few days so no point in waiting. I did put the main up with one reef in it, but the rivets that held it to the boom were too tired, so we ended up with the whole main. 25 knots and 1.5m seas, it was a fun run! Sabine has obviously got a good mix of our genes as she was not at all scared of waves and wind, but was worried a submarine might come up from under us!
Sailed most of the day at 7 or 8 knots and we witnessed 9.9 as we surfed down the best wave of the day! The canal is famous for being the most expensive for it's distance in the world. Greek business…. They know we will come. 200 euro for 3 miles.
