A 65-year-old British man had an absolutely crazy history on the night of April 6 to 7 o clock : he fell asleep in Marbella in his boat and woke up in Cadiz.
It is the daily newspaper Diaro de Cadiz that tells the story.
A maintenance officer of the city of Cadiz was alerted by the siren of a yacht of 7 meters in length by carrying out its work at around 5.50 in the morning. This one immediately alerts a patrol that finds that a boat is stranded on the small beach of the caleta of Cadiz in front of the baluerte de los martires.
Sleep between mediterranean and Atlantic
The firemen and the Civil Guard immediately arrived at the scene and found only one Englishman completely lost. He told his story:
Asleep the evening before in Marbella in the province of Malaga, his anchor has broken and he woke up there in the center of Cadiz on the Atlantic Ocean.
The stranded ship had to be monitored by the police because many people were curious ... Especially that the ship could be released only at high tide intervening at midday.
David Robert the owner of the Yacht was taken to a hotel in Cadiz to recover from his emotions.
We will not know more about this story because the British is rather discreet, which can be understood.
