Cold sailing

Image
It was freezing cold well below 0 Celcius but we were so enthusiastic that of course we went out for a daysail.

On the way to Stavoren

It was a lot about practising setting the sails and getting them down etc. But we must have done a good joob since the sun came out and it was a nice and smooth ride.

Fun Fun Fun

Nothing beats a good coffee. Andreas, Chris and myself enjoying the diesel-heating aboard the boat.

Lemmer

LinoCat in Lemmer. There were not many boats on the Ijsselmeer these days. Traffic from commercial ships was there of course. It was quite exciting to meet the first "real" ships and think of right of way etc. It was also a good training to visualize them on the radar.

FIRST TRIP

Image
Tonight was the first night on the boat. Temperature around the freezing point. Nevertheless we went out and Andreas Blauscha gave a very nice introduction about this catamaran.

Here at the FLEVO MARINA in Lelystad the mast has been put up. Unfortunatly i was in India at that time :-(
