An Aventura 45 catamaran completes a multi-week passage from Rhodes to Almeria, Spain, covering roughly 1,800–1,900 miles via Malta, Gozo, Pantelleria, Tunisia, and the Algerian coast.19:24 At the Blue Lagoon anchorage off Gozo, the crew anchors in 7 metres of water with 32 metres of chain (about 4.5:1 scope), constrained by a channel marker buoy and surrounding reefs; a rental boat goes aground on the reef for 20 minutes nearby.2:09 The 30-hour upwind beat from Gozo to Pantelleria produces 2–4 metre swells in what the narrator calls one of the roughest passages he has experienced.10:47 At Pantelleria, a rigger climbs the mast for repairs costing 600 euros, including a 100-euro interpreter fee.14:30 Departing Pantelleria after clearing EU customs, the crew raises the Tunisian courtesy flag and quarantine flag before a 27-hour passage to Bizerte, Tunisia, where two customs officials board to inspect the vessel and drones are confiscated until departure.20:55 A second Tunisian stop at Barca, a fishing quayside with no VHF response, requires two hours to check in and three hours to check out.42:45 Sailing the Algerian coast 2–3 miles offshore without a visa, the crew is hailed by Algerian Coast Guard, declares their destination, and is waved through.43:38 After five days and nights at sea from Tunisia, they anchor off Almeria with a torn mainsail and a faulty AIS transponder needing repair.53:44
