We are slowly recovering from the storm and are picking up the pieces. We have contacted the insurance company and are collating the information for them.

We decided that in the event of bad weather again we would stay on the South side of the harbour and rely on our anchor. In order to do so we have increased the size and have bought a new anchor (35kg Kobra) in Kos marina. They delivered it to the ferry and we received it on Wednesday evening. That was quick service everything done in one day. It was installed on the chain so quickly that there was no time to take a photograph. We immediately moved over to the South side and installed ourselves again.

There have been some squalls but the worst was last night or should we say early this morning at 3.30am. The anchor was put to good test as a squall came through that lasted 3 hours. “Charisma” was out checking their anchor later in the morning and also checked ours. It is so dug in that you can only see the attachment to the chain!!!! Feel much safer now.

Alpha antenna also arrived by post today so hopefully our internet connection will be more reliable and we shall be able to call from the boat instead of going on land.

Svein in on the last part of the DVD so we are hoping to be able to ship them out on Monday.
