Boat out of the water

Well this is my first time the boat comes out of the water for inspection and botoom paint and it gets me very nervous to see it going in the air.Lots of times i have read it,how nervous people get wen they see their boat gething out from the water,now i know how it fells.
So my wife took some pictures of our boat.

Barcelona World Race 2010

A couple more pictures of these great sail boats.
It´s amazing to see all that technology,wen i try to compare with my sail boat it´s like going back in time lol.
Sometimes i try to imagine what are they felling right know at these moment,is it coold,windy or big waves are they eating or sleep,are they happy or sad...etc

I got to admit they look great.

Barcelona World Race 2010

I was in Barcelona and as a sailer i could not whait to go to the marina to take a look.
Guess what... i was about to see the Barcelona world race and a chance to take all the pictures i whant,i could talk to the skipers and see the boats real close ,things that if it was in Portugal it will be almost impossible to get close to them.

Sail or not to sail...

The day i took this picture was a bad day to sail,big seas and the river was replete with everything you can think off and the color of the water was dark brown,
so i decided to climb the mast and do some clean up and next month it´s time for the police do the inspection to the boat in the water and out of the water that happens every 5 years in Portugal,and it´s going to my firs experience,am i nervous?.... i prefer not talking about because if doesen´t pass the inspection that means i can´t sail and means i got to spend more money to get what ever they think i should have or repair and finally pay another reinspection $$$$$$$$$$

Harmony

As you can see my wife was very excited with my invention,actually in this picture she looks more like a cowboy then a sailer...
