24 - 27 March 2023 - Amersham / Zagreb / Biograd
Our Spring / Summer adventures started when the alarm went off at 04:20 on 24th March. The flight to Zagreb was completely full, the passengers including Welsh football supporters going to watch their team play Croatia in the Euro qualifiers, and a Para-Olympic Boccia team going to play-offs for next year’s Olympics.

What joy to arrive at the marina and see Equinox looking spotlessly clean and gleaming in the afternoon sunshine. She is in the best condition, after the winter, that we’ve ever had. This is down to Marko and his team, who have looked after the boat while she has had her winter hibernation and restoration. It has made our part of putting her back to a home much easier than in previous years.
Now we are here we are very happy to be enjoying the blue skies and enjoy Biograd in the low season. It is very quiet, but with a hive of activity going on, the locals getting everything ready for the next big influx of visitors. The stall holders in the market were delighted to see us. The lady at the local laundry even opened up on Saturday / Sunday evening, so we could get the bedding washed and sleep on board Sunday evening.
Marko popped in on Monday morning and we have our plan for completing the jobs needed to ready the boat for setting off. It’s all good.
Tricia (and Steve)
