Cruise Themes For School

Season ends

As always the end of the season finally arrives Caribbean in May so it goes on to safe ground nicolandra (here we are in the range of hurricanes!) And take the opportunity to dismasted, and hurricanes for the speech or to control the bases under the trees. And here
dismasted! Strange, huh?

We will now talk about how she worked the red brick from vessel antifouling applied to curacao? After four months in the Caribbean port stops in almost perfect! What is inside and what is toxic? Just what it takes ...

A good time to see was dismasted! bases are completely redo and below floor plates to clean up and strengthen, it will be a big job that we will face in November.


Save the two feet and we see that the final tree is all in all okay, then'll make the sticks and plates (iron? Steel? Aluminum?)



A look at the hub of this shroud we convince ourselves that the work was already done!


nicolandra And finally at rest and trees securely placed on special supports in a controlled environment at constant temperature and humidity ...

We just have to wait for winter to come back here in the Dominican Republic to revive nicolandra with its trees, then it starts again! San Blas? Antigua? We will decide ...

Good Title For A 21st Birthday Party

Rolex Farr 40 World Championship

As perhaps not everyone knows, in April took place at Casa de Campo the world of the Farr 40 class, one of (if not the) classes to more highly technical and competitive, so that virtually all of the names of the America's Cup are, not surprisingly, the President of the race committee was Peter Reggio (Chairman of last 4 or 5 America's Cup!).
part of this event happened that, thanks to my qualities technical-tactical-operational (actually is a classic example of being in the right place at the right time = crazy ass shot!), I found myself embarked on Nero Q8 to play in the two-day pre-world regatta!

E 'was an incredible experience, the first day I got it almost seemed to be never go into the boat before, disoriented, physically destroyed, then take some measurements of these war machines (and I mean the boats but also for men) and the second day I also had fun! The crew was wonderful and understanding and everything was perfect!





And guess who won the championship (the last race decided in the last days as a thriller!)? Nero Q8! You can imagine the celebrations end ...
No printing, please!

Glamour and Caribbean!

Eyebrow Burn And Swelling

Life School (or school of life?)

And then here is a moment spent in the school semester! E 'has undoubtedly been a great experience with fun and rewarding even if, in relation to school season for Port deer, much quieter! Like any school the week of the course begins with classroom theory

Cui is followed by a good practice relying on favorable weather conditions (good-no wind waves)

finally to return to port tired but happy.

It is celebrated at the end of the course! For the record, the one sitting with a beard is tailers Riviera (remember newport, Pelaschier, Cino Ricci, america's cup final?) A myth!

course it is not only fun, as you can imagine, but behind the scenes there is a constant maintenance work and preparation (this is about monica to climb the mast to make repairs)

not forget in all this the poor kittens!
A thought and a hug to all friends, fellow workers!
