| Santa Ponsa |
Santa Ponsa is a lovely anchorage with enough space for everyone and good holding. On Sunday Roger did some boat maintenance – serviced a very sticky winch and sorted out the bilge pump which had just decided to stop working. We then found time for snorkling and canoeing ashore to the Marina where we had a drink. We met Ian whose boat Caprice is the deck version of the Colvic Countess. Monday we sailed (very slowly) the 14 miles to Las Illetas and anchored.
Our troubles began on Tuesday morning with a very blocked heads! Roger started work on it before breakfast and worked (and swore) all day. Some of the the pipes were almost impossible to reach. The job was made worse because the motor boaters and jet skiers caused a lot of swell and the wind got up so the boat was rolling quite badly. He managed to clear some of the pipes which were extremely furred up and the main problem was one of the valves. Having put it all back together again about 7 p.m., we discovered the sink drainage had been dislodged! I persuaded him to leave that job until the next day.
