6 Aug 06 - Our expected departure

You are here: Home > Sailing the boat to Denmark > Diary

Today we expect to departure for our seatrials.

The ship is full of people, including Panos, Christos who is the electrician and plumber and doing lots of other types work, the two carpenters who have been doing incredible hours and their foreman George (a brasillian) and finally the upholstery man and his son doing the walls and roof upholstering.

Im trying to refit our plans. We was planning to try to race to get to UK before Sep. 1 to have Soeren and Nikolai with us over the Biscay, but it seems quite unlikely to be possible by now, and thus we can just aswell try to have a semi touristic trip while we try to round up crew that can help us for the trip over the Biscay to UK and possibly on to Denmark.

Ive had contact to Gerson, who still seems interested in participating from Messina. He will get back to us shortly about the options and posibilities.

Unfortunately the phone number I have on Andrew Abel doesnt seem to work well, as we always get a TIM (Italian phone company) message telling us that its not possible to reach the person. So Andrew if you read this, please call or SMS us at +45 41 44 05 17 or our satellite phone (check the communication page for contact info).

We are STILL looking for more crewmembers! 2 more would be perfect! If you follow this journey, have some sailing experience, and would like to participate dont hesitate to SMS us!

More info and photos when we get to a fast internet connection.
