Hvar to Skradin with new crew. Welcome to Pam and Alan Penson.
Before leaving Stari Grad on the island of Hvar we took the bus across the island to the ancient town of Hvar to show Ken and Cathy one of the most visited places in Croatia. The bus took us via the ferry terminal where we collected more passengers from the boat that arrived from SplitContinue reading “Hvar to Skradin with new crew. Welcome to Pam and Alan Penson.”
Ken and Cathy’s visit
We were moored up in Marina Seget, at Trogir to await the arrival of our guests. Deja Vu was gleaming inside and out when Ken and Cathy Otto arrived at 2.30pm Saturday May 24th. Our American friends had just driven up from Dubrovnik to join us for a few days sailing, to end their threeContinue reading “Ken and Cathy’s visit”
First journey south May 2014
Having enjoyed a couple of days on the water in Sukosan, socialising with old friend (well not so old!) John from Forgiveness and new found friends Pete and Pat from Independent Feeling, the weather improved enough for us to set off on Saturday 17th May. We motor sailed to Biograd and then set the sailsContinue reading “First journey south May 2014”
First days in Croatia
Deja Vu was still under her winter cover when we arrived on Sunday 11th May and in spite of this protection, the decks were covered in a deep layer of local and saharan dust some of which seemed to have penetrated below decks. With plenty to do involving cleaning up, unpacking and installing the re-assembledContinue reading “First days in Croatia”
Getting Ready for the 2014 season
It is May 5th and our thoughts have turned to the Summer sailing season. There is always more gear to take than we expect and this year is no exception. There will be maintenance jobs to do when we reach Deja Vu in Sukosan on Sunday 11th, but we hope to launch during the followContinue reading “Getting Ready for the 2014 season”

Karma Noodle (and thanks to Sharron)
When Sharron arrived on Deja Vu back in mid June, she had with her a ‘noodle’. Actually it was Peter who had painstakingly carried this said blue, semi flexible noodle in his luggage, which at a length of 1.5m and diameter of 70mm, was no mean feat. It sprung out of his luggage with muchContinue reading “Karma Noodle (and thanks to Sharron)”
Touring around Montenegro
Montenegro is a small, rugged and beautiful country. The country covers just less that 14,000 square kilometres, has 293 km of coastline, 70 mountain peaks 2000m above sea level. Made up mostly of hills and mountains, it is dramatic, unforgiving terrain that supports a population of about 600,000. In the north of Montenegro, the RiverContinue reading “Touring around Montenegro”
The coming and going of the beard
It all started one morning when the recent Christmas present Mo had given Nigel in the shape of a top of the range Remington razor, simply fell apart in Nigel’s hands, honest guv! It was early July and we were nowhere near shops that sold food let alone electric razors. With no back up wetContinue reading “The coming and going of the beard”
