    The floating pontoon is not present anymore at Frikes. Yachts are berthed alongside. A sign states that it is expected that you take other yachts alongside your own boat when there is no more room left on the quay.

    Posted on behalf of SY Funny Girl:

    We are with our Saling yacht Funny Girl in the harbour of Vathy at Ithaca.
    (38 N 21.926 by 020 E 42.934)

    We had no problems with mooring at the place where in the past there seemed to be problems (see report linked to above).

    There is only one sign stating that that particular space should be left open for more than 50-foot yachts, but now in the evening it is completely occupied with sailing yachts, even parts of the ferry landing are occupied with sailing yachts.

    The men of the water and fuel tanker lorries were helping us with mooring lines. We arrived at 16:00 with a lot of side wind (25 knots in gusts) but they were patiently helping us.

    I did not ask for their names, but it seems that attitudes to visiting yachts have now changed here.
    Today it is the 14th of July and the quay is full of sailing yachts now at 23:00 hrs.
