After staying a few days in an amazing remote anchorage, we are planning to do a big sail and move on when Nicky gets poorly! Planning to try and complete our sail as quickly as possible but things take a turn for the worse, when Nicky gets extremely ill with a fever, aches and pains and fighting a Septic Bursitis, so we do an emergency diversion back to Bodrum and seek urgent medical advice and strong arse penicillin quick sharpish!
