[sailaboutvic]

We on your patch so the question is where can I get my camping gas bottles refilled or where am I likely to be able to exchange them for other good camping gas bottles not Greek rusty bottles or camping gas bottles that been resparyed ?
We carry a good amount of bottles but we running out this year .
Next lot of islands over the next few weeks will be .
Sifnos, Milos, Mikonos,and a few other in the Cyclades .

The only one I know for definite is the chandlery at Paroika, Paros. Syros is a possible at Ermopoulis, occasionally at Loutra on Kythnos. Otherwise further east several places.
Why Mykonos? Dreadful place.

Go to Rinia, and Delos if you like ruins. The very last bay S of Mykonos is a good anchorage if crossing to Ikaria but not the one before unless you like boom-boom music all day.

We keep them anchorages in mind and no Bang Bang isn't our music .
We anchored in kamares on Sifnos , got the whole anchorage for our self , just two cats on the harbour wall , nice and quiet .
We was in Livadhiod on Serifos last night quite a few in the harbour but only four of us at anchor , bit noisy cos of the football but went pretty quiet once that over .
We manage to sail 2/3 of the 11 miles before the wind give way and at 1.8 kts it was time to start up .
Look like we may have lost the wind for a while , see how far we get to morrow .
May check out another anchorage on the island or catch a bus inland .
