Thanks GED - did you leave your 'big one' over there as a spare
yes I've left the big one in Kalami all year, cheap storage and now I have no towing ....just jump on easy jet.

How fantastic!

I always wondered if it was really possible to tow a rib down to Greece, after spending last summer on my folks boat based in Lefkas.

There were so many Italian ribs hopping over, that I thought is it really practical for three weeks - I guess the answer is yes!

Have fun. Yamas!

We did get out of Teeside yesterday for a dive - but the camera couldn't cope with the low light

The blue waters of last week amazingly became brown !

,,,,,,,,,, still - a great day in and on the North Sea was had by all.

Mackerel and lobster

Petrol heads and Mercury fanatics should enjoy the music track

Heavy Rain Forecast

What a fantastic trip - I can see why you chaps do it. Ancona Port was hell, but the rest was very smooth. We took 4 days from Scotland. I have posted a few pics - check out the last, especially the delightful WPC and her speed gun below the big sign! Only problem now is I cant go back without a boat!

Thats exactly our problem 6 years down the line from the 'one off'
Dont blue tubes go well with blue seas

Glad you had a good trip. We have decided to try the Frejus tunnel instead of Mont Blanc next year - just for a change and advice from a guy on Paxos who makes the journey in the winter to see his kids

I will be there from 17th June to 5th July ,,,,,,

Post some more piccies if you get chance

Great Video

We were off a little late by the time we got to the caves, so sea was up a bit en route from Parga - a few more pics, River Styx, late ferry at Igum.
