Skipping Milazzo



It's sunrise and we've got our first look at Milazzo. It is rather industrial looking around the port. There are fish farms, fish processing plants, power plant and many large ships anchored. The tide (current) flowing through the Straits of Messina is strong and it's important for us to go with it. We calculated that if we just kept going this morning the tide would be right with us in the straits. So, goodbye Milazzo!
