It's just incredible two dry day in 10 days , thunderstorms day and night for four days now,
wind of between 25 and 35 kts roar throught day and night at times touching 45 kts.
I can't remember this weather in this part of the Med lasting for so long this time of year and there no let off till the end of the week and that's if it doesn't change again.
750w solar and all that's been seen is just a few amps , our winter cockpit cover refuse to stop the rain coming in now it's so wet .
I would say it's Dismal and boring but that be under estimating what's it's been like living on board the last few weeks,
Any work on the boat has stopped ,
Going to the supermarket which is just out side the marina,have you looking like a drown rat by the time you get there,
at times just going to the toilets you risk getting blown of the pontoon that rolling from side to side most of the time.
It's so dark at times we having to keep lights on due the day time.
The two night a week social life at happy three hour have stop so had the Sunday BBQ,
No one vengeance out .
The only advance is the deck are clean ,
that's untill the wind turn Southey and bring with it sand.
And at less the new windows I replace before the weather turned had a good test for leaks .
I can't wait to get on that plane next week ( not something I ever tho I say) at the very less I be able to stretch my legs .
Live aboard realty is nothing like the front cover of YM .
