back to square one...
...how much energy and time Fred, Harry and I have spent in May to get Feelin LOST (FL for future reference) from the wharf in Arbatax to the marina in LaCaletta (di Siniscola), just to sail it down to Arbatax again on day 4 of this journey, the first day at sea. and again 9 hrs on the engine.. 5-9kts of wind are just enough to get the sails up and down and up again aso. but not to quit the engine... oh, that we have done after 10 min already, i was so fixated on having the seacock for the cooling open, that i forgot about the fuel-valve... but, D. knew excactly how to get the engine going again, opened the 4 injector chambers, let the air out and in 20 min we were going again... what a start.. i will never forget to open it again, wonder what i will forget instead.
Finally we anchored in Porto Frailis, finally i see the beach from the other side after March and May. Quick check on the anchor and cleaning the log-wheel from sea-creatures ended with a jelly-sting, don't know if it was kinda payback... anyway... quick canned dinner with some red wine from the wellstuffed winecellar of FL. Now to bed.. sleep!? not as long as the disco on the beach is sendig their beats..
Tomorrow!? heading south, what else...

Ma lernt nie aus, offensichtlich... Die FL hat einen "benzinhahn"? Auweia! :-)
