Big Vathi-Ithaca to Fiskardho
we raced (motor sailed) Rob and
Sam from Vathi to Fiscardho. We lost. Rob won. My first email
after we returned to the states had the following closing:
(Flapjack the fastest
boat in the Kioni Flotilla)

| In the morning
as I sipped my morning coffee from the cockpit and watched this old
fisherman do his thing, I noticed he did not have a fishing pole, but
rather like all the other fishermen we have seen on this trip, he had a
coil of fish line. As I sat there thinking that he could get much
more distance with a fishing pole, I watched him patiently wind up his
line and swing the bait in a circular motion and release the longest cast
I have ever seen. |
