We had, as forecast,  a big storm last night. High winds, thunder and heavy rain. This morning a very sad sight awaited us on the quay.

It’s the mast and rigging of a little yacht called Kastos which was moored here overnight. She has sunk at her mooring,  presumably battered onto the quay by waves and wind.
The port authority staff arrive with a crane and begin to raise her. The damage is severe.

After pumping out the water she is lifted onto a trailer and taken to a boatyard.

Very sad.

The day brightened up later.

This is the view of the big boat yards across the bay. We’ll be taking Konstantinos over there in a couple of days to add to the forest of masts.

Paul and Hayley left this afternoon, have a good trip home chaps!
