definitely not! it just happens that the single boat on the second pic is a mobo, tbh I prefer yachties as they generally don't have/run a generator and are more likely to be quietIs it because they’re yotties ??????

Actually, I’m the one who parked next to the catamaran yacht that is nearest in the photo. But I don’t think there is anyone aboard.definitely not! it just happens that the single boat on the second pic is a mobo, tbh I prefer yachties as they generally don't have/run a generator and are more likely to be quiet

Unfortunately the weather forecast is changing, I wanted to spend several nights here (I needed a break from all the work I’ve been doing on my passerelle). We might leave tonight or first thing tomorrow ?
The good news is we are only half a dog walk from home ????? so we’ll be back soon

Which bay is that Bouba?

It’s called the Plage De Leoube. It’s owned by Lord JCB (and they make sure everyone knows it!)

No worries - I should add that they are less effective when we're over 26-28 knots (we cruise at 32-33). At anchor they are very effective.
Plenty of activity still on the water, there were superyachts all over the place around La Maddalena / Bonifacio straits last week.

Ionian (and the southern bit of it) badly hit, a number of boats sunk or run aground in ports even!
a v.sorry sight. Medicane (or whatever they call it) slowly moving to Peloponnese and fading. Expecting it to affect a few more places but not that badly from now onwards (we shall see)

looks awful, just nicked a couple of pics from a newsite (efsyn.gr), first from Kefalonia, second from Zakynthos, but for sure Med can bite you in the backside!

I thought he was your mate and you were regularly invited to his British wine tasting evenings? Can anyone anchor in his bay, even me?

Anybody (even you) can park there but there is now an air of unwelcomeness.
I have seen boaters invited to his big house, but trust me, they arrived in superyachts

What do you mean "unwelcomeness". Does he have a fleet of JCB 3C's on the beach with automatic machine guns mounted on the end of their booms?
Btw congratulations on buying the most expensive and most overrated player in Europe

There are an increasing number of restrictions, that used to be enforced by one of the grounds staff screaming at you now they use uniformed security guards.
And, seriously, don’t eat at his restaurant. I just had the world’s worst sandwich. Only the ants hiding in it liked it.

Am I right that in France nobody can actually own the foreshore adjacent to the sea?

As far as I know the beach is public property. But of course it is very lucrative if you own the access to the beach.
