Some snaps from the mast top





More and more Catamarans have been coming in the last days. Since i had to go up to check the windvane i took some snaps from above.

The two similar catamarans are Broadblue 415 and belong to scottish people. Now two more Lagoon 380 and lagoon 421 arrived. Also the Tucanon, a 440 which we met in Santa Cruz already.

The big cats like the 47feet Catana and 50feet Sunreef and Prout Quasar 50 could go longside and the other all had to go "stern to" which means it is tricky to get on and off. Due to Lani they allowed us to move in the corner of the basin and stayed longside.

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 :-)
