After the annual lift for Moana in Cartagena, lots of overdue jobs taken care of and the strong north-easterlies at an end, we're off for some Island Life in the Balearics

We' have a 16 hour journey ahead, with very little wind, from the anchorage at Tomas Maestre to the south east coast of Formentera. On the way a 8m2 sheet of polythene wraps round the keel and propeller and a mid-passage dive under the hull is needed to free the offending item. Welcome to the Med!
