It is getting warmer!

Yesterday, we ordered the paint for Guppy. At these times it is not so nice to have a big yacht because you need at least 10 cans. And that is only the red paint! We hope we can paint next week because at the moment she looks a bit dull with her sanded hull.
At the inside I also started sanding as a lot has to be repainted. At the moment it is an enormous mess, but that is always the case before it becomes nice. The new rudder is also almost finished. We only have to make new bearings and than it can be installed.
I got used to my new life in Zeeland already. It is a lot more quiet here compared to the centre of our country, where I lived before, but I like this.
The sponsoring is doing very well too. Recently I got a whole set of new sails from Zwaan sails. I’m really happy with this. The sails belonging to the boat where not of such a good quality anymore. Rien de Wolf sponsored me a brand new dinghy and Mercury a small outboard engine to join it.

Of course I’m also still busy with the points of the court of law. The judges ordered me to follow a first aid course. From an organisation called “iedereen EHBO” (everybody first aid) I received a first aid course sponsored which learns me how to help my self in case of an accident. They had to write a special program for this because normally you only do this course enabling you to help somebody else and not yourself.
