Water Mellon moored on a quay in a green Ionian bay, under a blue sky with white clouds.

Sailing from Messolonghi

The logbook of Water Mellon: a 1992 DROMOR Discovery 3000, her crew, and the lagoon she calls home.

We are Nodas and Efi, and Water Mellon is our boat: a 1992 DROMOR Discovery 3000 that spent almost ten years ashore before we brought her back to the water. We sail out of Messolonghi, race when we can, train our crew, and write down what we learn.

This is not a travel guide. It is our logbook: real trips, real races, real repairs, and the Greece we live in every day, told for friends who sail.

Water Mellon

A charter boat from 1992 that got a second life, and everything we have changed on her.

Crew

Who sails her and what each of us does aboard. Yes, including the dog.

My Messolonghi

Our home waters: the lagoon, the town, the food and our club.

Greek Spirit

Greece in small, specific things: a kiosk, a coffee, a taverna table.

Off the west coast of Lefkada, September 2024: Water Mellon’s first trip after the rebuild. Drag to look around.
