Greetings,
My parents had a motorboat,8 meter.
However,i was all the time away with this sailboat.I started sailing at the age of 8.When i was 10/11,i was on a 16 meter,and later on this 28 meter.
Allways with the same owner.The idea was to go to the south-pole in the year 2000,with this vessel.But the owner past away,in 1997.
I had the luck,to be in Tanger,Agadir,Ponta delgada,the scilly's,Channel islands(europe)Spitsbergen(svallbard).Durring de years i knowed this man.This just a small grip,on the trips i was on,with this vessel.
The idea of the South-pole came,because the owner of that vessel,has been on 1 of the last belgian expeditions to the south-pole and stayed there for 1 year.He wanted to go back to his base,from that time.
(King Boudewijn base).
Now these days,you can still go on this vessel,durring week-ends and holidays.It is also a regular vessel in the Cutty Sark Tall Ships Race.You can sign in if you want.
If you need extra info,mail or PM me.
Regards
Marc
