Mahon

Posted: December 11th, 2009 under News.

We have arrived in Mahon which will be our base for the winter. It was chosen mainly on price being half the cost of Palma or the south of France but it has a lot going for it in its own right. It is very sheltered and very rarely gets any kind of waves unlike both Palma and France so mooring lines and fittings don’t get such a hammering. So far it also seems to be a good 5 degrees warmer then the south of France, let’s hope that continues!

The boat has been packed up with all the “toys” taken into dry storage and the tender will also be dry stored with its engine winterised. The plan for the winter is for us to have some time off, catch up on some qualifications and we also have a couple of maintenance projects to make Concerto even better for next season.
