A week in Normandy by Newbie Channel Virgins
We sailed on the good ship C’est Si Bon under the stewardship of Skipper Allen Busby and his mate David Reed along with Gianfranco Trucchi and Aidan Murray. The Fairview charter boat surpassed our expectations having only previously been on a few rather tired Greek flotilla and training boats.

Looking Back at Hot Hot Hot 2017
For our 17th Hot, Hot, Hot we decided to return to the predictable enjoyment of the Greek Islands, our 5th visit to that country. In 2005 we sailed from Kos and visited the northern Dodecanese Islands so a visit to the southern ones was long overdue. Also, on two of our trips to Turkey we have sailed around but having to avoid these islands, which are very close by, as you are not welcome to simply flit between the 2 countries. The problems with the immigrants understandably trying to cross this short stretch of water also seem to have stopped.
