Back on 'Capricorn' atlast.

08 July 2013 | Trizonia
Una.
As we arrived in Trizonia at midnight we anchored in the Bay so we didn't get to 'Capricorn' until 8th July - exactly 34 days since leaving her. She was exactly as we had left her with some notes from passing cruising friends who had called in at Trizonia in our absence.
It had been a real adventure covering 800 sailing miles from Elba to Trizonia.
Our grandchildren couldn't believe that we could possibly live aboard such a tiny yacht when they all clambered aboard !
It was lovely to have ‘Leesa Christina’ and the family with us for a few days in Trizonia.
After we have had some time here to wind down and relax we will link up again and sail in company with ‘Leesa Christina’ for a few days before the children have to go home for the start of school.

The last month has been an exciting one and well worth doing !

About:
We started married life 50 years ago owning a 24ft wooden sailing boat 'LYNETTE' and after a few years owned a 50ft wooden ketch 'SUNSHINE'. We sailed in the Clyde Estuary in Scotland exploring the Hebrides during summer holidays. Next we had a one-design Piper 24 Class racing keel boat. [...]
Extra: This year our son bought a 41 ft. Jeanneau Voyage sloop 'LEESA CHRISTINA' lying in Elba, Italy. Allan and I helped him crew her across to Greece.
