Today we accidently went through the Corinth Canal and into the Aegean sea. We didn't mean to, the plan was to anchor on the Corinth side and go through tomorrow but when we got to Corinth it was blowing a steady 40 knots in the bay. Fortunately there was a convoy about to go through (big ships followed by yachts) so we joined on the end. It was a bit exciting going into the enterance to the canal with big waves smashing on the breakwater but once inside it was calm and smooth. Also calm at the other end which is amazing as the canal is only a couple of miles long. Coming in through the narrow enterance in a steady 40 knots was interesting We were tail end Charlie going through Amanda rugged up following the stormy weather on the Corinth side. It is a bit grey and rainy Amanda doing all the work.
