I liked reading about the crew of the Mazarin on their blog. They seem to be rather interesting people. Thanks for introducing me to them.

I'm glad to hear that you two had a great holiday.

I wish you fare winds and calm seas ahead.

I'm actually starting to feel anxious for you guys. Now's a brand new fresh page. Time to kick it into gear and getting going already. Y'all need to getting into the hardcore sailing groove and go go go. Too much floating around and relaxing ( i know i know, doing repairs and waiting on parts ) but there's a point when you got to get it on and go and make do otherwise you never will. Too many delays are never a good sign.

Even if the saddle is loose, just crack the whip and go ! :-)))
