Clifton Island


We met with Charly and Lisa from Bomika and Volker from Sunjet for a sundowner on Happy island.


After a few rumpunch we had the real caribbean feeling and we could live with the semi-good sunset. Since 2 days the weather is very humid and hazy with visibility of less than 5 miles. Humidity is around 65 to 70% and the wind has died down to 6knots so it is starting to feel very hot.







Also to the left you can see a dump from our chart plotter and how we anchored behind Baradel island.
To the right (east) you can also see the horsehsoe reef which protects the Tobago cays and where we snorkeled.











The Outback Felxmate 60A charge controller produced an output of 223Ah over the day with peak charge at 43A during noon.

With so many people on board the watermaker is running many hours since we produce around 125Liter of water per day at least.

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 :-)
