So we finally got to start our voyage. When I arrived at the boat on the 11th Jan, Glyn & Di had got Pizzazz ship shape for her trip and we had a few final things to organise and load. Everything just fell into place, we had a spinnaker pole, Windvane and a garage that we did not know what to do with and within 2 days, all was sold, so we were pleased with that. Although it took a week to get going and say all our goodbyes, we were very fortunate to have our friend Gunter around, as he was a great help to us in our final moments and appreciate all the help he gave us, Jenny in the office was also a great help in getting our garage sold in such short notice, thanks Jen. So the weather window arrived that we were looking for, as we wanted to get past Durban at least, so on Thursday the 17th Jan we let go the mooring lines and Pizzazz was on her way..........Bye-bye Zululand Yacht Club.......thanks for some fantastic friends & memories!!!
