Flight to the boat

The flight departed at 14.05 from Frankfurt with Lufthansa. It was on time but they have done a gate change quite late and so we had a nice run to the gate after getting out of the Lounge.
Lani had potato-salad in the lounge and liked it a lot.

The car from Lagorent was there as always, it was a Renault Megane. I think some engineers need to have their hands cuffed because they produce really stupid solution. Like the Renault Megane or i am not getting the french way of building cars.

It was a 25Min drive to the Tivoli Marina Hotel and the room was already reverved via HRS. It was 116EUR per night including a very nice breakfast. Expensive but very convinient since the hotel is built around the marina.

After we met with Dieter from the Trimaran Flying Kefi it was time to sleep.

No cloud, 32degrees and wind with force 2-3 from NW. A great start!

Sailing for Jesus Christ

Image
Today the ELIDA V was in the marina. She is 40m long and the mast is 45m high!!! She is built from composite and weighs only 95 tons. With a sail area of more than 800squaremeters she can do 20knots. COOL STUFF The boat is holding groups of young people who believe in Jesus Christ but it does not matter to which church they belong. Typically up to 40 young people are guests and the crew is around 12 to 16 people. The boat is very spartanic inside but built very safe and fast. The big Harken winches are operated by grinders and even the anchor is pulled up with them. This is the meeting room below. It can also be used for company sails. Maybe one day we will have our management meeting there. Here you can see Colin from Californa. He showed us around on the boat. Under http://www2.elida.se/default.asp?id=53 you can read more about this fabolous boat. Roger at the steering wheel. Almost as tall as he is :-) Check my big shoe size 47 against the winches and the traveler :-)
