In Pakleni, the Jugo caught us well and today we experienced the rain and thunder that Jugo traditionally brings. We were fine there at anchor, but the forecast was for the Jugo to fade away around 17:00 to give way to the sun, and for the land and sea to breathe again.
The weather changed, dramatically! We started the week with the normal summer wind orientation in Croatia, which results in very predictable winds all day long, and ended it under the Jugo influence, bringing rain, thunder, humidity and waves all over the Adriatic! Jugo is the Croatian name of the Sirocco. Look back at my postings on Croatian winds here and there to further understand what I am talking about...
On the 11th of June I changed crews and came on board with Ebba and Theo, who will accompany me to Split. They are both experienced sailors and it is a great relief to have such a good crew!
