Just A quickie as we are preparing for our mega trip to the ARC finish line,
where we become it - if you see what I mean. Kealoha 8 just in - two others
overnight. One a tiny 45footer - Russian crewed in the main, the other a
larger Italian one who nearly took out the ARC finish line boat on it s
arrival. We've enjoyed the first couple of days and were very impressed
with the Italian hospitality of Berenice, who poured us a drop of "Italian
champagne" from their magnums - for which they have permanent holders on
deck! They dropped another bottle over to Roulette when she arrived, they'd
been playing gibing games at sea!
The rest of the fleet will be in for some exhilarating times, it's windy in
the Atlantic just north of us too!
