Saluti from Fethiye

A week without internet. İ have spent the time in a few bays. The one just south of Kash is large and beautifull with quite a safe anchorage grounds. İt has a few motels and restaurants - caves and marked hiking trails in the mountain and gorges around and ruins back to the Cylicians and rock tombs. many yachts comes and anchore. Thereafter i anchored in Yesilkoy Liman west of Kalkan a deserted bay. The weather deteriorated with near gale force winds (in a safe anchorage) lightening and thunder storms with heavy rain at times so i decided to stay there for 2 days. The weather is still unstable but the wind is light - from Yesilkoy i sailed to Karacaoren anchorage near Gemiler and this afternoon i came here. Lightenings and thunders are still heard outside. On Sunday morning i will be sailing to Gocek where the next crew is coming. Shabat Shalom

באמת כבר דאגנו....

אני מבינה שאתה ו"רגלים קרות" חוויתם גשם וסערות ברקים באותו זמן. האם זה אופיני לעונה באזור? תהנו בהמשך.

אני רואה שיש לך מזג אוויר "מגוון"..

השנה..לנו היה באיזור רק גשם קליל פעם-פעמיים ופעם קצת רוח יותר מהרגיל, לא משהו רציני.. המשך הפלגה נעימה

Such a weather is typical in this

season, however usually it last one day. In this case there were 4 days of isolated lightenings & thunder storms with heavy showers, of which 2 days of near gale force winds veering 4 times from SE to NW. This is unusual periodwise.

Dear Ilan With all respect that I have to your knowledge in seamanship, I want to give you a small advice that comes from my experience in maintenance of small crafs An old engine is good for a museum and not a working boat. You can repair today one detail and 2 or 3 days later another part will collapse. In the end you find yourself spending time in repairing or searching for spare parts instead of sailing. And the price in the end some time is higher than for new engine. In turkey in the end of charter season you can get a used modern engine, in condition to do few thousands hours in good price
