In yesterday's Correia de Manha was a photo of the top few feet of a mast, reportedly a 9m Dutchman, somewhere near Alcoutim. They said that it had been anchored there for sometime and wasn't a hazard to navigation.

There was no info but the impression was that there had been no-one on board.

I think it may be "Ocean Venture" she is a Hilliard as far as I know. Hopefully she will be raised and repaired.

If it is Ocean Venture, he used to be on a mooring in Faro before re-engining with my old engine and moving to the Guadiana where I'm told it sunk a couple of years ago. Sounds like it was sold and has sunk again.

Maybe trying to cool down? Must be like the inside of a furnace up there

I bet it's hot in the yard as well. Not too bad on the water, only 29 down below today (so far) and a light breeze up top.

No need for a jumper inside the chart table anyway
A bit farther up in Alentejo is where the really warm weather is. :sleeping:

The downside of a metal boat sitting on concrete.
