Dear readers,
this morning in an early hour we arrived at Admiralty Bay, Bequia.
We had a good and quick passage over from Barbados, lots of rain and thunderstorms though... but they allowed us to make an average of about six knots.
it's the first caribbean island we've visited before and we're awaiting the arrival of our dear segel-ag fellows for the celebration of christmas eve.
unfortunately the digi-cam is broken, so no photos =(
we'll try to fix it for you!
have a nice and cosy christmas everybody but don't go out, you might freeze on the spot.
greets, your crew

Bridgetown, Barbados
More than glad to tell you: yesterday, the 13th of december we arrived at Barbados after 23 days out on sea.The sailing was quite easy for the weather was mainly good.
The first ten days we had rather weak winds from variable directions, sometimes no wind at all and we couldn't make big distances. But after this period (we really asked ourselves if there is such a thing as tradewinds) the passat picked up and except for the last two days we had great conditions and approached barbados very quickly.
We had a good time out on sea though it was really a long time on a small space. But we enjoyed it and ourselves most of the time.
Nd now we're here, finally at our destination and it is perfectly what we wished for and had hoped.
The water is still turquoise, the beaches are still white, palm trees and caribbean spirit still there!
At the moment we're only busy with enjoying, relaxing and recovering from the long time on sea.
Thanks to all of you for all kinds of support,
Yours truly, laszlo and Jan-Vincent
