Dit weekeinde is Frank, mijn jongste zoon , bij mij op de boot op bezoek geweest. Het was schitterend weer en we hebben heel gezellig bijgepraat. Misschien gaat hij binnenkort mee zeilen. Dat zou erg leuk zijn.
That is the name of my sailingboat which I purchased in june 2008. She is a Grey-One 38 built in 1985. Dimensions 11.85 m x 3,42 m x 2,11 m. Design: Dick Zaal, aluminiumhull, superstructure and deck. Round bilged hull, keel with trim rudder, displacement approx. 7,5 tons, ballast 2,4 tons (lead), vertical tiller.
My passion is solosailing. I have been sailing now for approx. fifty years, starting with a sail on a kayak end ending up in multihulls. I just finished a three years solosailing trip in my catamaran "We Two Are One" around the atlantic. Recently I sold this catamaran and purchased the aluminium monohull "Greyhound". Right now (summer 2008) I am renovating this boat and preparing her for my next solosailing adventure.
