| Susannah at anchor in Ibiza |
We left Moraira just as the sun was rising at 6.45 a.m. and motorsailed in a flat sea for 3 hours, and then managed to sail on a beam reach most of the way arriving about 5 p.m. Then the difficult bit – trying to find somewhere to anchor. We tried San Antonio Bay, but the part that was vacant was full of weed and the anchor didn’t hold. We tried another couple of bays but they were quite small and boats were already there. In the end we managed to anchor about 8.15 p.m. near Cala Basa in 16 meters and had to put out our 50 meters of chain and about 20 meters of warp.
We have now sailed just over 3,000 miles and have just crossed the meridian line, and our position will be East from now on.
