During March it blows at 7. , 17. and 27. ( as old people says) very strongly. During summer sometimes it blows with force 9 (40 to 50 kts). BUT MORE DANGER WIND DURING WINTER IS "JUGO" - SOUTH WEST WIND AS IT MAKE BIG WAVES ( max. wave measured on the oil platform in North Adriatic was 11 m as Pilot says!) Off course , if you respect sea and forecast, such strong wind is predictable and it is not difficult to avoid danger situation. By the way, Marina Kastela is situated on the direct force of Bora from Klis region and I should not leave my boat there during winter months. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=q-WhHtQ3k30&feature=related Edited by branko (02/05/2008 18:01) Post Extras       Entire topic Subject Posted by Posted on Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog 01/05/2008 00:27 Re: Bora In Croatia branko   02/05/2008 17:42 Re: Bora In Croatia Big_Nige   03/05/2008 16:49 Re: Bora In Croatia branko   03/05/2008 18:35 Re: Bora In Croatia Captainslarty   03/05/2008 16:58 Re: Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog   03/05/2008 19:18 Re: Bora In Croatia branko   03/05/2008 20:18 Re: Bora In Croatia david_brighton   04/05/2008 20:33 Re: Bora In Croatia branko   03/05/2008 18:14 Re: Bora In Croatia Metabarca   03/05/2008 18:06 Re: Bora In Croatia Captainslarty   03/05/2008 18:08 Re: Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog   02/05/2008 23:39 Re: Bora In Croatia Metabarca   01/05/2008 09:00 Re: Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog   01/05/2008 10:23 Re: Bora In Croatia MapisM   01/05/2008 00:54 Re: Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog   01/05/2008 01:04 Re: Bora In Croatia MapisM   01/05/2008 13:07 Re: Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog   01/05/2008 00:33 Re: Bora In Croatia ZigmundoVanDog   01/05/2008 00:37 Extra information 0 registered and 5 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
