Triumph in Mallorca

Triumph is a Nauticat 43 ketch rigged motorsailor. Eileen , my wife, and I have been living aboard since 1997. My name is Dick. More on our sialing history later.

After crossing the Atlantic last year, Triumph is on a more layed back schedule this year. We left Rota Spain in May and sailed to Gibraltar, then to Morocco. Returning back to the EU was uneventful as we worked our way up the East coast of Spain. Quaint harbors and anchorages filled our days and nights until we reached our jump off point to sail to the Baleares Islands. Our first stop was Ibeza then on to Mallorca.

We are currently in Andraitx , a beautiful harbor on the NW coast. It is about 30 miles from Palma.
