"Sailing is such hard work!"

Not when you're on vacation in Greece! With a foot on the wheel and a cold drink in your hand, your're crrrrrrrruising, man!

I have to say I don't oppose to wind at all. I think sailing is at its best when you're heeled over, the waves splashing against the hull, the yacht making good speed, proving her seaworthyness. Others prefer the days that are so calm you can dive off from the bow, take a little swim, and climb back up the swimming ladder at the stern - while we are sailing! Days of dozing off in the sun, while all you hear is the yacht gliding through the smooth water.

Not to worry: Sail this area for two weeks, and you are sure to experience both kinds of sailing.
