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:
Olly found a hole.
We decide to patch the whole area with a steel plate.
That's the "patch", halfway though welding it on.
The prop is shiny again
More patchwork.
After all this Barracuda might actually be pretty waterproof!
