It is practically impossible to get a place in a port on Elba., And it is said it is even worse in Corsica. The ports are filled up at least 5 days ahead with reservations. When supplying, the port authorities also say no. Use your anchor and use the dinghy! Today I tried to be really smart. I had to have fuel and when there was siesta for an hour and a half I placed the boat at the quay to be ready. I then had 1 hour for provisions. When I came back there was almost a revolt against me lying there. A giant motorboat could not get to the quay and the captain and authorities talked about fines etc. In one way it looked a little comic that my smal boat stoped the whole business. I hurried away even though I also said that I had been back half an hour before opening time. Well - the really big boats get special treatment and actually I can well understand the difference that I refuel 15-20 liters and such a large 4 storey motorboat takes 15,000 liters for the net sum of 30.000 €😟. I dare not come back until tomorrow and I got the provisions 😊
