As you already know we did not start yesterday due to a missing Genoa. In addition one of the crew put 50 liters of water in the fuel tank...........

We went out with Mats on the Match Cup RIB to watch the start. The conditions where perfect sunny,15 kn wind from north east thus everybody started with spinakers. The latest news on our Genoa is that Lufthansa put it on a plane in Munich this morning and it is duae to land here on the Island at noon today.

Fortunately Michael(we met Michael Ericsson the first night we got here, he stay here in his Swan for the winter doing some work on Boats and he is fluent in Spanish) is helping us out to clear the sail trough the customs, without his help I think we would be stuck here all week.

The plan is as follows: We will go to the airport at 13:00 to meet up with the sail while the crew finisih up the fuel system and if the stars are bright and positive thinking we should be on the water by late afternoon.

The mood of the crew is better today, we where pretty down yesterday. The mood will be even better when the sail is on the boat.................

AGAIN, this will be my last entry until we get to St Lucia, count on 14 days of sailing if the current weather forcast stands.
