Actually the name is Romeo's rock but in the Greek mythology it says that Aphrodite emerged from the sea in that area.
Have you been there?

And another one with the best speed i got with the 250,sea conditions didn't let me reach my target speed of 67-68 knots but i am very pleased anyway!
Now i have to take the borrowed 250 out of my transom so speed will stay to 66 knots!
