Landing in Beirut was really an interesting experience. From midnight we had the Israeli navy questioning all ships. They did not question us however.
At about 04.00 a United Nations warship made contact with us and we completed the radio questionnaire and proceeded to a position 12 nm offshore and called Oscar Charlie (Beirut Radio) who then asked us the same questions as the UN and then requested us to proceed to a position 3 nm off Ras Beirut.
At this point we were cleared to proceed to the Movenpick Marina.
Most of the rest of the morning was taken up with immigration and customs.
This morning I went for x-rays as my rib is still really sore, and found out I fractured the 9th rib. This explains the pain.
Nick sms’d me to say that both he and Demetris landed safely at Larnaca airport so it seems that the delivery adventure is over, and it is now back to the real world.
Thanks to everyone who helped make the delivery a success.
