Monday 18th July IBA pontoon, Nidri

We’d booked on here to meet Dimitris, the stainless steel expert who built our gantry. Whilst he was happy to make a passerelle bracket for the stern of Jacana, he was less happy modifying the ladder, suggesting we buy a ‘cheap’ proper passerelle from across the road. We thought about it and in the morning succumbed, plus 2 new fenders and fender socks. An expensive stop.
