A passage from Italy through Palagruža, Lastovo, and Mljet aboard Mille Felice covers roughly 200 miles of Adriatic sailing, with Nick and crew member Nico making the run in mixed conditions. At Palagruža, a mandatory-permission anchorage, repeated VHF hails to the lighthouse keeper go unanswered, a direct easterly swell leaves the anchorage rolly with no sheltered option, and three gale warnings from multiple directions push the crew to abandon the stop.1:00 The sail to Lastovo's Skravena Luka anchorage produces boat speeds up to 9.3 knots in 15–23 knots of wind; the crew tacks into the bay and drops anchor under sail without the motor.4:41 Departing Lastovo, a rising wind needle prompts a preemptive reef: Nick bears off, fills the jib to depower the main, and sets what amounts to one-and-a-half reefs before conditions deteriorate — the boat immediately returns to 8.7–9.3 knots in full control.15:56 Nick explains the decision as a teaching moment, stressing that a tidy cockpit and secured below-decks gear allow fast reaction.17:06 The final anchorage at Polace, Mljet, uses 80 meters of chain in 15 meters of water with a snubber set at 2,800 RPM in reverse.21:35 Reefing early on a rising needle, before a gust arrives, keeps speed up and eliminates the risk of being overpowered downwind.
