Corinth Canal, an amazing feat of engineering and a box that required ticking on our bucket list when we began sailing. It was amazing there is no doubt, but what awaited us on our exit into the Gulf of Corinth can only be described as scary. Once over the submerging bridge and through the breakwater we were hit with a 3-4 m swell and winds gusting to 40 knots. With 2 hrs to our destination of Kiato this was going to be a very bumpy ride!
Kiato is the first mainland town of Greece we will visit on this journey, and after the trauma of our passage and the horrendous time trying to moor, our first impressions were decidedly poor. The saving grace is that 1 km along the coast road there is a Lidl store!
Leaving Kiato behind we head for the popular town of Galixidi, a short sail North and a sheltered town quay that gives us time to re-gather ourselves and relax.

so we've just checked in for the

currents and paid a hundred and forty

seven euros it's a little bit more than

we anticipated we can have anticipated

about ninety pounds which would have

been about in the 120 euro so that's the

first thing but we've only got about a

20-minute wait there are a couple of

boats coming through the opposite way so

we've just got to wait for them nice guy

very friendly very helpful and we'll see

him on the other side apparently

[Music]

so the gateways just dropped kind of

anticipate a boat will come through in

the next 10 minutes or so

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

your eye on the road keep your eye on

the road stop looking at things you're

not like to look at things margin for

error

we come to the Torrance canal pull out

on the other side and the weather here

the wind is gusting up to 30 bucks well

a couple of hours of this so we should

look we've got the motor on as you can

see I don't think there's a road in

certain sales and and some as you can

see you were beautiful day just learn a

Hooley and rough to say the least

these first we beanie know that you

probably have able to hear me anyway

interesting no wait we're going to the

harbor and there was nowhere to go no

spaces 40 knots of wind so we came over

to thee well I suppose it's where all

the cargo boats go and of course the

wind is blowing is off the actual jet

off the harbour war yeah

[Music]

so just leaving Cato this valve was just

after nine o'clock and although it said

that it was going to be flat calm we've

had 20-knot winds this morning but we

decided to make the break and we've got

out here and I see it's not too bad

we've got between 10 and 16 knots of

wind and it's on the beam and we've got

the sails out there are beasts down a

little bit but we've got six point six

point five knots and we're pretty happy

with actually so we're on a course to

galaxy D which is about 30 nautical

miles from here which the takers I don't

know six hours something like that

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

the cameras on this thing it's just

gonna be upside down don't worry

[Music]

yeah I'm so amazing

we don't get vacant

which he comes from on Cameron

so I think that's the tone of itea but

we're actually going a little bit

further on to a place called Galaxy D

which is pretty well sheltered between

that little island and from Paris and

the mainland so it gives us quite a bit

of shelter because apparently the winds

are gonna be pretty strong tomorrow and

overnight tonight so we just need to top

top somewhere safe
