Sun. 31th october - Kalamaki - P.Epidavros

Kalamaki - Palea Epidavros

Weather : Sunny ca.20°C.
Wind : N 1 Bf.

Today our first sailingtrip to P.Epidavros, unfortunately there was no wind, so we had to motor the whole way.
Lucky the weather was sunny.

In the afternoon the whole fleet arrived in P.Epidavros, now the small fishingharbour is packed with yachts.

This evening we have the welcome-dinner/party at Verdelis.

Hopefully we have some wind tommorow for our first race.

Greetz,

Koen & the crew
