We anchored off Isla de San Martin mid afternoon – we weren’t the only people with this idea! We were a little disappointed after hearing so much about these idyllic islands. We counted 72 other yachts, so don’t come here in search of your desert island! We swam and then went ashore to find […]
Well you could say we are upping the anti in the fishing stakes – James managed to collect a few scallops and a sea slug! Sadly none were edible! The scallops were very disappointing once opened but we are not deterred and shall continue our endeavours to procure free food! We left Moana late morning […]
Great day with Edward and Verity. A combination of lazing, (well there was a bit of supplies shopping for the galley slave, ably assisted by the Skipper) sleeping (well that was one male member of crew and the Skipper) and sailing which involved all the team. We are now anchored off the marina at […]
We weighed anchor in the early afternoon and gently sailed to Vigo where, after a very narrow dog-leg entrance, we moored up. Edward and Verity arrived looking very fresh and chirpy considering their long drive. We’re heading off tomorrow to show them some of the sights and the beautiful unspoilt beaches of Galicia.
Hooray!! Finally! At last! Not one fish but TWO. Now the burning question - are they edible? This is not a competition! We need to know and then, if they are edible, Claire needs to know how to cook them!
Guess who left Thomas Towel behind in Ares showers on our dash to Coruna to return for Andrew’s wedding? Not sure we’re quite prepared to put any money on this one!! Well, we returned today in 30 knot winds, rafted alongside a very surprised French yacht, whereupon Claire sprang into action and dashed up the […]
The wedding was superb; the bride breathtakingly beautiful, the groom totally smitten, the rain held off, the flowers held up and now the happy couple are on their honeymoon in Scotland in a tent! We, on the other hand, have returned to our wonderful home on the water after the smoothest of trips and are […]
We left Playa de Santa Cristina this morning for the 2nm run into Marina Coruna at the end of the First Leg of our Adventure. It's very strange to be packing up for the flight to England - Ocean Rainbow really has become home. We won't be posting any more blogs until our return and […]
