Every single time we cross we are either running away from a storm coming or we sail right into one.. We have the worst timings when it comes to crossings. This time we had to find cover in Soller for 3 days. And it was rough. Super stoked with our new anchor, we didn’t move an inch. But others around us went drifting bad, it was gnarly! We had to motor a few times to dodge away from other boats drifting towards us in the middle of the night. We had up to 45kt gusts of wind which isn’t that bad, we’ve had worse but no sleep for 3 days in row was killing! 4th day we left but hit some big annoying waves, wind was all over the please, swell kept changing (no they were not predicted, but yes we could of assumed this ourselves after 3 days of storm, we were very much sleep deprived though) We made it though to Alcudia, that’s what matters! Was it a fun crossing? Maybe not so much, was it a beautiful one? Hell yes! The west side of Mallorca is absolutely stunning..
