Ep53 Rhumor leaves the beautiful Marina at Cap d’ Ail and travels along the coast east towards Italy. With the wind coming from the south east it is hard going, as we get closer to a headland half way into the trip the wind decides to make a switch to the east meaning that Rhumor was now not able to sail and we were heading straight into the wind. With the engine pushing us into the wind and waves, we were making very little way (speed) so we pulled into an anchorage just to the west of the head land and found a little bit of shelter while we had some lunch.
The wind we were experiencing was not forecast and watching other boats going past it looked like it was the head land that was making a local wind shift, so after lunch we pulled up the anchor and tried to get around the headland. This was hard going but once around it was a different world with no wind at all.
We got to the anchorage a bit later than we wanted to and after a mad dash ashore to do some washing and a quick look about Italy for the first time it was back to the boat and straight to sleep ready for the next leg of the trip in the morning.
Thanks for watching from the crew of Rhumor.
