The Portuguese northerly took a break on Tuesday but was back today even stronger than on Sunday. I had an appointment with a sailmaker in Cascais marina and since it is quite expensive there I was going to use their short stay option, 6 hour for 12.30 Euro. But after seeing the forecast - gusting up to 39 knots - I decided to stay for the night. Which cost me a bit over 43 Euro. My most expensive marina so far. Cascais is a town that attracts rich people and since rich people like to hang out with other rich people, the marina is taking advantage of that for jacking up the prices. There is nothing with the facilities that says it should me more pricey, it's a quite ordinary place. Staff is friendly though.

The wind is supposed to settle a little tomorrow and then I go back out for anchoring again. Before today I had 10 consecutive nights at anchor, good for the budget. I'll see if I can take 10 more before next time I have to go in somewhere.
