Marina San Miguel ???

After our last visit in the "swell-marina" with the mooringlines we thought we give it another try. Last time we had asked them if they have a berth and they said yes and then there was only a mooring available. This time we entered and called them over the radio around 16.00 but no reply. Reception pontoon was full with the yellow submarine and a boat taking diesel. Called again on VHF channel 9, no reply. We then decided to drive all the way down to check for free berths. We saw one but again not on a finger but with moorings. A marinero used a whiste and wanted to move us to such a place and i wondered if they have no VHF radio. We decided to leave and go for an anchorage instead.

Sailing for Jesus Christ

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 :-)
