Good Bye to the Med for now




This is a painting we had made of EcstaSea sailing away from Alghero, Sardinia in 2013 when we were leaving the Mediterranean for the Caribbean. We felt that we were "done" in the Med at that time. As we strolled along the beach we saw a young artist painting this scene of Alghero with Capo Cacciao in the background. So we asked him to paint EcstaSea sailing away and he did! We have it hanging in our Tucson home on our blue wall.

Well, little did we know at that time that we would be back so soon. But after a 2 day sail, here we are back in Alghero. And here is a picture of Capo Cacciao for real in the background:


We wintered EcstaSea in Alghero for 5 winters and are happy to do so once again. It is one of our favorite old walled cities on one of our favorite islands in the Med.

So she is out of the water, safe on the hard, and we are flying back to Tucson for the winter.
Be good Esea and we will see you next May....
