Nearly there


OK, so things are up and running. This is the yacht. She is a 51 foot (17 metre) "Sovereign" from South Africa. It has all the stuff needed for a good trip, like desalination for fresh water making, fridges and freezers, 3 cabins (each with ensuite). And for those that are concerned - yes, there is a life raft, EPIRB, flares and all the normal safety equipment. It is very comfortable looking inside, but I won't put all the pictures up here - we will try and get more of them along the way.
It seems that we now have a map - set to the start of the trip in St Johns in Antigua....just got to get there now! and that is a mere couple of weeks away. Have a great Christmas everyone! More soon......

hey, now that's a nice post! The map will get a bit more focussed and better, don't worry.

Great to see the photo of the boat. Looks comfortable.

We all look forward to further updates :)
