This was the last day for a sail with Daniel (my son) and Becky (his wife) before they returned to the UK, so we were really looking forward to it. Our aim was to sail to Cape Pyla or Greco. We didn't quite get there as the wind was very very light.
We started with our large asymmetric foresail. When I say light winds I mean about 5-6 knots, yet the sail allowed us to move at just over 2 knots. Obviously at that speed we're not going to make Pyla or Greco!
Lunch was our traditional shipboard fare for a day sail: fried Halloumi, pittas and tomatoes. Somehow they always taste better out on the water.
We got back just before 5pm. All in all a very enjoyable day sailing.
