The details of the Mediterranean passages have not been finalised yet.

The rough route is to sail along the south coast of Turkey, across to the Cyclades group of Greek Islands, across to Malta, Sicily and Italy, visiting the Amalphi coast, then Sardinia, Iberic islands, the east coast of Spain and around to Gibraltar.

Further decisions will be made later pending crew, finances, timing and maintenance.

Timing for the Atlantic crossing is crucial for comfort and safe onward passages.

I am aiming to depart Gibralter by mid September.
