To our delight Barracuda was still standing where we left her over five months ago, the lock wasn't majorly seazed up so we could even get in. Overall the boat seems to be in a quite alright condition ( should I say that without having started the engine?), dry inside, just very, very dusty, but we're working on that right now.
Der Plan
This is the blog of our travels with s/y Barracuda.
The trip started in August 2010 from Harlingen in the Netherlands as a young man's adventure by Jan-Vincent Nickl and Laszlo Schöffer, both born of the year '89 (also the owners of 'Barracuda').
After crossing the Atlantic Ocean and cruising the Eastern Caribbean islands for a while, Jan left the boat and Oliver Clasper, a young artist and photographer (born of '88) from London joined in. We plan for this year to cross the South Pacific.
The boat is a dutch-built sloop,ten metres long, year of construction 1975. She's a Cumulant 3 to be more precise, designed by 'Van-der-Vlis'.
Most of the photos will be posted on Olly's blog, check it out:
