Previous post was on leaving Sanlucar de Barrameda.
That is where I finally found how to refill Camping Gaz bottles. Most hardware stores can do that (Ferrerería in Spanish). And it is just €18.70 for 2.75kg full replacement. I am wondering how much I will have to pay in Gibraltar as back in the UK I paid about £30.
Next stop was Rota. Just overnight stay. Went with the dinghy to the shore in the evening to wonder around and to have a glance of how American soldiers enojoy there after duty hours in the pubs.
Light wind and side swell. I didn't enojoy that night.
Puerto Sherry. First plan was to stay in Cadiz for couple of days but decided to hide there for South easterlies. That spot is still exposed to westerly swells. But it wasn't that bad. Maybe I just got used to it :)
This was the longest stay in one place - 10 days. But I have visited Puerto de Santa Maria and Cadiz (one way ferry ticket just €2.65).
Also finally have tried to put strorm jib and trisail and have prepared hooks for easy attachment. And many weird problems like trisail mast track is too short for the sail. I wish I will never have to do that in bad weather. Especially alone.
Puerto de Santa Maria.
Cadiz.
Sancti Petri.
Had to stop there as it is described as European Caribbeans. The weater was not that good but oh well.
Barbate. Just overnight stay and a lot of rolling because of constant swell and side winds...
