You know that you are in the Caribbean



When the first boat which approached you a night is a rastaman saying hi and when the boat passes by you smell Marihuana.

Also when the customs office plays loud reggae music and the "officials" all come a little late but are friendly and quick in stamping the papers.

When the most important transportation is a rubber inflatable boat and you have several dinghy docks, even at super markets or restaurants.

When Lani needs to learn to walk again if the ground is not moving and is again happy to collect stones and flowers.

On the to-do list now:
-Get a bigger outboar engine
-Get a BBQ grill for the boat
-Go to the beach

Life is good! RELAX!

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 :-)
