Poseidon’s Underwater Kingdom
ESTELA End of Season Party
In keeping with the Greek theme of this year’s edition of ‘The Y Yachting Itineraries’, we are celebrating the god of the sea, Poseidon, aka Neptune.
Many of you will long have ‘crossed the line’ and been initiated into the court of King Neptune, but this night we shall all enter as Pollywogs and emerge as Shellbacks!
Raid your ‘Davy Jones’ locker and rustle up any old subaquatic costume. Come as the mythical kraken, a mermaid, Aquaman, Jaws (yes, we know the shark’s name was actually ‘Bruce’), SpongeBob, or any person, object, or creature from the deep.
Let your imagination swim wild, and there will, of course, be PRIZES for the best costumes on the night!
> Friday 4th October, 18:30h – late
> Venue: DiQue (formerly Blue Nest), Port Adriano

In light of the destructive DANA storm in the Balearics two weeks ago, we interviewed some captains about navigating in a Mediterranean storm. We also spoke with insurers about how claims for storm damage are handled.
