Hi all,

10 July 2012 | Hamburg Citysporthafen

after 15 years back to the start!

Hi all,

09 July 2012 | on the Elbe

departed Cuxhaven for Hamburg Citysporthafen

Hi all, a quick update from Brunsbuettel- a - beam. We left Cuxhaven together with "Antje" at 1300 in 25 kn very gusty SW and driving rain - what kind of summer is this? It just stopped rainnig a few minutes ago and we are following Antje who zoomes ahead of us towards Wedel. At he moment [...]

ETA for Hamburg: Mo 21:30

Hi all, after a sunny warm morning we had a showery front with strong gusts to pass us. At least the wind veered now from SE to SW so we should be able to sail tomorrow the last 55 nm to the city center of Hamburg, the strong 2-4 kn flood current will help us for 6 hours. Our arrival time is still scheduled for 21:30. Our phone numbers here on board are: 0175-1976094 0170-8140365 Andrea and I are sharing the phone with these two numbers, one should work.

departed Helgoland, arrived Cuxhaven

Hi all, we had a good time at Helgoland:: birthday dinner, Martin's farewell, visit of the "Duehne" (amall island next to Helgoland with beaches and seal colony), drank "Helgolaender Eiergrog" (hot alcoholic beverage with Rum and an eggyolk) and went swimming at the heated seawater [...]

arrived in Germany

Hi all, this morning at 1040 we arrived happy and safely at Helgoland. We got a great welcome by Lennard, Emily, Kati, Dorle (sister), Manfred (brother in law), Kerstin (niece), Hanne (niece's daughter) and Nils (niece's son). Then my aunt rang from Hamburg and told me to tune into a cerrtain Hamburg radio station where we heard her greetings and a song played for our arrival and my birthday - how nice!. Manfred organised a special berth alongside the jetty, the sun is shining the whole day and it got rather warm - so so all is good here! AHOI! Arne and the Iemanja crew and welcomers

arrived in Brazil

28 February 2012 | Jacare Yacht Village / Cabedelo
Arne
Dear all,
yesterday, Monday 27th Feb 2012 1330, after exactly 9 easy days sailing, we safely and happily arrived at the Jacare Yacht Village / Cabedelo / Brazil.
Arriving in Brazil closes a big circle for Annemarie: she has been crewing for the last 6 years on different boats but mainly sailed and worked on "Pachamama" to support the Schwoerer family on her Top-to-Top expedition. So with this South Atlantic crossing she has now circumnavigated the globe - there was a big smile on her face when we entered the Paraiba river at Cabedelo to motor 6 nm upstream to this little marina. Annemarie will fly back home to Switzerland in a week; just in time for her daughter's and her own birthday (now I am not supposed to tell a woman's age, but they both will be celebrating a round number and together they will be 110) and we will do some excursions with her before that - she is a fantastic and energetic person to have on board!
Also for Kati and myself a circle closes, as we arrived in Fortaleza / Brazil in Dec 97 after crossing the North Atlantic Ocean with Bernhard as crew, so now it is Brazil again to give us a tropical welcome after having crossed the South Atlantic and last night we all had Caipirinhas to celebrate the occasion.
Today we will take the train to Cabedelo to check formally in and tonight we'll eat the Dorade I caught on the way in.
We are planning to stay here for 10 - 14 days and then will most likely sail directly to French Guyana.

All is well on board
AHOI!
The Iemanja Crew

PS: the marina here has a good WiFi internet connection, so I'll soon upload fotos and Skyping is possible
