Do we have any first hand knowledge? - --------------------------------- I am not Greek but I sail my boat around the Greek islands and I am active on the maritime radio nets. American yachts sailing in Balkan areas are advised to remove their flag and paint out or disguise the home harbour info on their stern; the yachts stern that is :-) If you backback in the islands via ferry, you should remove the flag patch on the backpack to avoid being drawn into a "discussion". You should be OK, especially in the islands. I have not heard of any violence against persons. Alan
