The crew of the Lagoon 410 S2 *Suria* sails from the northern coast of Menorca toward southern Sardinia, navigating light winds and frequent periods of motoring. After a brief, unplanned stop in a sandy, Posidonia-free anchorage on Menorca’s north coast, the pair hikes to a local mirador to explore the island’s rugged cliff formations. Upon departing, they utilize a Gennaker to maintain speeds of 3.5 to 4 knots in light conditions, eventually encountering a solo sailor in a small performance boat. The passage concludes with their arrival in southern Sardinia, where they prepare for incoming Mistral winds and thunderstorms by setting their anchor with full-throttle reverse power. During the stay, a chain failure causes the fuel tank cap to fall into the water, prompting an underwater recovery attempt. The crew notes that their transit across the Mediterranean has been characterized by inconsistent wind, requiring frequent reliance on the engine and careful monitoring of weather windows for longer passages.0:59
