After a pleasant stay in Murter we moved on to Tribunj. That was a short trip but with good wind. What a good wind is for sailing is not always good for mooring but we managed anyway, Time for a safe arrival cold beer.
We stayed here for 2 nights, it’s a great place. On August the 5th we left for Sibenik where we arrived in the morning to find enough moorings available. We could also stock up again on diesel.
Sibenik, another pearl of the Adriatic.
The weather forecast, via the VHF, was favorable and so we were of to Dugo Otok, via the Kornati islands. Winds were good but later turned to NW, so we had to use the engine in the end. Approximately 35 miles today.
At peace. Dugi Otok..
On Friday August the 7th we left around 10.30 to Veli Iz, another island, where we arrived 3 hours later. This is a very good marina with good facilities all year round.
On Saturday we leave early for the long haul to Ilovik, back North. We leave Silba on starboard.
