Dear Shipmates
Introduction
From late July through late September of 2024 I will back in the Ionian, Saronic and Aegean Med. I'll be looking for any passages in these waters, I am working slowly towards RYA Yachtmaster so I'll be particularly interested in skippers who are willing to share a bit of their knowledge between taverna visits. Fair winds! James
