My boat is in Greece. Should I be concerned about access to Greece and my boat if the Eastern Med goes to War? Airlines and airspace and safety. I don't have a clue, does anybody?

Your insurance company will almost certainly have a clause meaning they won't pay out in the event of war if your boat is damaged or lost. As for getting to your boat, nobody knows how flights will be affected yet. All it needs is one 'accidental' hit on a commercial flight and your only way of getting there will be overland.

You should definitely be concerned about your future access to Greece, because you may be banned from entering if anyone in authority there reads this tripe.

Just to be clear, my question was whether we may have difficulty getting to Greece to our boats next Spring. There are airline pilots and tourist workers on this forum. I hoped they had experience of similar situations to share along with other forum members to enlighten me. I did not anticipate being attacked by someone for asking that question.

And this is why a lot of people left the forums. Stick to sailing-related posts. Getting to your boat may be ... but the political speculation isn't. Cease and desist.

Getting to my boat depends on the political situation. I believe many people left this forum because of interference from self-appointed forum police (and their shills).

I hope you remain on it for another 20 years and you learn to respect the forum rules - I too want to remain on the forum but I know if I challenge some of the political, prejudiced, racist nonsense you're posting I'm likely to be banned.
