After positioning ourselves at the eastern side of Mallorca the previous day we left early this morning for the passage to Calaforte, Sardegna. It was uneventful as we waited until the Mistral ended before leaving and had a nice passage with some sailing and some motoring. It was Luca and my first overnight passage together and we did just fine. The instrumentation on this yacht was superb for keeping track of other traffic at night. The radar is the best I've ever had on a yacht and it, along with AIS, kept us aware of any threats.

The next day, we pulled into the delightful town of Calaforte and stayed for several days enjoying the restaurants, provisioning and meeting Luca's parents for dinner at a fabulous restaurant whose theme (of course) was Tutti Tonno (everything tuna).

We picked up some cans of the local tuna to take along and look forward to a return visit at some point. What a great stopover!
