Now Sun and Trade wind , April start crossing Atlantic, direction Ireland
It is already the end of February.Most of my boatjobs are done. Yes most of them because boatwork is a never ending story. In April I start to prepare the boat for the big crossing of the Atlantic. Yes back to Europe but end destination Ireland . ETA in July. May make a stop in Bermuda and Azores.
Skipper and boat :
The skipper is sailing as long he can remember and is at home on the ocean with his boat – a compass 34 build in 1977 - for the last 32 years. The skipper is build in 1960 and has saltwater running trough his body. My profession was being a captain on Dutch cargo ships. ( I have a licence as master without any limits )
My boat – Mylady – is a good and strong boat and made her miles. I own her since 1991 and since then live aboard.
On board there is space for one female companion who has her own “ cabin “ forward.
A romance is not where I am after. Just a sailing companion.
