We will leave Saturday 7 July from Siracusa for the 320 nautical miles to Patras.
Seas can be heavy during our crossing so be prepared for some serious sailing!
I will be accompanied by one of my best sailing mates, allowing you to either "sit back and enjoy the ride" or participate actively in the day and night crossing.
After resting somewhere around Patras we will set sail for the Corinthian channel, which weatherwise can be a challenge once we head out for Athens. So bring foulweather gear, although we expect the sun to always shine!
I will have on board my co-skipper Rob S. to help me and grant even more safety.
Our boat (which we have owned for 20 years) is the first of the famous Sparkman and Stephens designed Swan 65 ketch line. She sleeps 8, has a classic interior in typical Nautor style with matte-finish teak. The aft Owners cabin and the Port cabin have an ensuite bathroom, with wc and shower. The Starboard cabin has a shared bathroom (wc and shower) with the Forward cabin. The salon is particularly comfortable and the open-plan galley is very well equipped. There is a 180 liter per hour watermaker. The RIB is an AB 320 Alu with 15 hp 2 stroke Yamaha engine, for luxurious fast and safe transportation. At 50 years of age she is in pristine condition, boasting a new teakdeck. This will be our 2nd season in the Caribbean after having sailed her from Italy in 2021.
