Three Weeks In Paradise. 11. Hvar to Korčula

Today, Mekicevica is going to make her most ambitious passage so far: we are sailing from Hvar to Korčula, about 35M SE. It went really well. There was a weak but steady Maestral blowing that allowed us to sail the long stretch between the two islands on a broad reach and that run goose-winged along the Korčulanski kanal.

Hvar to Korčula, position fixes show Mekicevica's slow but steady progress.

After ten hours of delightful sailing we arrived to the beautiful town of Korčula in a mellow evening light. A performance like this really called for a celebration with a delicious grill.
