Sailing in Greece

Post by ksailing »

Hello everyone,
I´m a new to this forum and I have really enjoyed that there are so many enthusiasts of the Mac M! I recently purchase a Mac M in Greece and would like to share any experiences sailing around the Greek isles :) . If anyone who has sailed a Mac M anywhere in the world and will be in Greece this summer, I would enjoy getting in touch...this is a totally new experience for me and so far it has been GREAT!

Hello and welcome ! Let us know a bit more about you. Where are you based ? Is at a new or preloved M ? Any exiting mods,yet ?
The Greek isles with a Mac ? I am honestly jealous. You have to give us regular reports of your adventures and lots and lots of pictures, please !

Best wishes and fair winds from the currently rather rainy West of Scotland !

You can learn a great deal about sailing a Mac by just reading this forum, without 'contacting' anyone. It's been about 10 years for me, and still learning.

Of course, sailing in Greece would be enticing to most of us.

Thanking everyone for the responses :) For the last two weeks, it has mostly been motoring (where's Aeolus when you need him :| ) I'll be heading for Skopelos in 3 weeks and I'm VERY excited!! Anyone sailed around this island?? I would love to sail the Ionian and would appreciate more info on where you have been with the :macx: Thanx ones again!
