Impressions from today at Falmouth harbour

Some people have asked what happened to the Tuna. Well, he gave nice steaks yesterday evening and this lunch he participated in a tomato-tuna salad with toast bread and tonight he was again our guest star in good indian CURRY! YUMMYYY

So we still expect him to be with us (partly) tomorrow with another rounds of steak. Maybe this time on the grill insetad of the pan.











This is our anchorage at the moment.

The beach is right behind to the right and there are almost no waves since it is also protected. So Lani had fun altough she managed to fell in the saltwater in a way that she was completely submerged. Well, she did not even cry. What a tough cookie!










This is the beach and one of the boats in the back is LinoCat. The dark part in the water is sea grass.

















Lani enjoying playing in the sand.













One of the classic boats which participated in the regatta.















Athena, the worlds biggest private owned gaff rigged schooner. 90m long she belongs to James (Jim) Clark, Founder of Netscape and Silicon Graphics. For our business i should also mention, founder of WebMD and Healtheon.
He is 64 now and married to a 28 year old swimsuit model :-)
Unfortunately i did not see her.













Lani collecting stones again and today i head to carry them all in my shirt pockets. Yes, in both of them. Now i know how girls feel who carry to much weight in front of them!



















Lani getting tired after playing and walking around. The wound on her chin is still from the botanical garden in Guadeloupe where she fell running downhill on a concrete path.

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 :-)
