sailing Cascais

After 4 days of rain,finaly we got a nice sunny day,so we diceded to sail from Lisbon to cascais with some places with 3knots of wind others with 9knots and the closer we got to cascais more wind we had,up to 20knots. take a look at this video with this beautifull spanish sail ship.

Harmony

Here are some more pictures of my boat with the knew antifouling,and... YESSSSS... it did pass the inspection,but i got one important notice,the hose from my gaz botle was to old.
And it pop to my mind once wen i was a boy in my grandmothers house,that has a great view to the bay in Sines and i remember to see a sailboat going out and after 10min i heard a explosion and the sail boat was on fire.
At the time they said it was the gaz botle.
So the inspector got my atention.

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.

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

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.
