Regatta Rio Ave

Posted in Regatta on October 31st, 2009

After a really long time of very nice weather we catched in the regattas in October and November only bad conditions.
But the few wind was just enough to have an advantage compared to Mike Davis. So for the first time we were able to crossed a finish line before Mike Davis.

Regatta Costa Verde 2009

Posted in Regatta on October 25th, 2009

Compared to last year there was a lack of participation. Mostly due to bad weather conditions only three yachts start the race. Second day all of us had to give up: the time limit of 8 hours was not possible to achieve, even so we catched some wind outside. While beening in a fog bank we saw quite a lot of dolphins (unfortunatelly the did not push us).

Nice warm weather and a nice east wind were bringing us to Porto on the river Douro. Besides all the pictures from the people on board I was making some snapshots from the environment.

No events, but…

…in the past few weeks we had some nice sunsets and also some nice cloudy days. And unfortunately a lot of fire raisers used the nice weather.

All pictures were taken while driving. Btw: is there any law that is restrikting making pictures while driving? ;-)
