Our story began in Yort on Gotland where we bought AI 47 Pilot Saloon. We named her Frida and Visby is her home port. On this episode of Sailing Frida, we’re turning back to the mainland from Mallorca, a popular sailing destination known for its stunning beaches and crystal clear waters.
Practical Anchor Life
To give you a snapshot of our day, we usually wake up early in the morning. Today is no exception as we’re located near Isla Gorgullà and just across from the beach at Santa Pona.
Grocery Shopping
To start our day, we head into town for some essential provisioning. Despite the limited tourism here in Jordan, we managed to find a supermarket with everything we needed.
Daily Boat Maintenance
Once back on Frida, we enjoy simple yet fulfilling meals like tuna sandwiches while watching beautiful sunsets. During our downtime, we perform daily tasks such as laundry and water production thanks to the abundance of solar power.
Awaiting Departure
The day before leaving Santa Pona, we checked our preparations, ensuring everything was in order. Anders prepared the jib for a light wind downwind sail.
Embarking on Our Journey
The morning finally arrived to leave Santa Pona. We raised the anchor, bid farewell for now to this beautiful place and embarked on our journey towards Dénia and then Valencia. We followed our old track but adapted to different conditions, occasionally motor sailing as needed.
Arriving at Aïtresca
We arrived in the picturesque Bay of Altea, our favorite anchorage spot before departing for Mallorca. This marks part one in our return to mainland Spain. In the next episode, we will continue towards Dénia and then Valencia.

We are a middle aged couple that has left our hectic business lives to go sailing with our sailboat Fridá af Wisby and our cat Litza. Our goal is sail the Mediterrainean Sea and really enjoy life.
Anders has been at the sea most of his life and sailed for the Swedish national dingy sailing team as a young man. Gitte has also grown up with boats and spent every summer sailing with her father as a teenager. Onboard we also have our cat Litza a 4 year old Devon Rex we call her the cattain because cats always decide over their humans.
Fridá af Wisby is a Wauquiez 47 pilot saloon that we Gitte and Anders bought in UK in 2019
