The View from my Office Window 18 June 2007

It is becoming very busy in Symi harbour these days, and Pedi is not much quieter. The anchorages are full every night with yachts of all sizes. We will have to see how this is affected if the proposal for the Blue Star 'Diagoras' to dock in Pedi comes into operation as its wide turning circle and prop wash will make Pedi bay an unsafe anchorage for yachts. Every visiting yachtsman knows how to avoid the water boat and the occasional freighters which slip in and out virtually unnoticed, but a large high speed passenger and vehicle ferry is a different story.
