Nikolas arrived last Friday, October 21 in Andros island and the next morning sailed for the Aegean crossing.
He first called Myconos island, passed Delos and finaly for the night he had to stop in Donoussa due to heavy weather.
The journey proves more demanding than expected due to the hard weather conditions – wind mostly of force 7 and waves 3.5 to 4.5 meters on Saturday and 4 to 4.5 meters on Sunday.

MONDAY 24th of OCTOBER

Well, maybe the forecast about “moderate” wind is just averaging the greatly variable conditions of this last sailing leg. Here is the description given by Nikolas’ support team late in the afternoon:

Good evening to everybody.. difficult day today..for those who dig about weather..the Karpathian Sea is one of the hardest aereas..The last update we got was 2 hours ago..(mobile phones are out of reach and we have no other means for information..)..Even if something happens they have to get really close to the island to get network signal.What we know is that the wind in quite a few places was dropping to 6-10knots(that is 2-3bft) demanding pumping…for extended periods..while there were spots where wind suddenly was coming back very strong…in 1hour & 28 minutes the sun will set and the port of Karpathos(facing East-not West)will have not much light after sunset..We are very worri

BUT HE DID IT ! Pumping & struggling in the dark he dropped his sail docking in the port of Karpathos…Bravo Nikola & THANK YOU.

Il navigue en RS:X pour le flotteur et la toile aucune idée pour la taille, autours de 9m²?

la voile pour les hommes en rsx est la 9.5 en effet,

sinon, là il a pas l'air du tout en RSX mais bien en matos de slalom,
un très très beau défi, tant par le défi windsurf que du lien humain,
