The trainees are working hard in sunshine and snow!! What is happening to our climate? This is the final week of sailing for 2010 and they bring Jessy over to Rossbryn to lift her and tuck her up for a couple of winter months. Then return for 2 final weeks of theory in the lecture room. All ready for the 2011 safety training, Caribbean sailing and back to Jessy end of Feb for more sail training to prepare for their final exams in March.
In the meantime Cypraea is on her way to the Caribbean. We are stopped in Tarragona to make some modifications. The previous owners didn't seem to go for particularly heavy sailing, so we are busy moving electrics, adjusting cupboards and servicing pumps. The crew are amazing so an enourmous THANK YOU to Noel, Kristof, Fiona and Fionnualla. Rory and Oisin are doing their school work and being sent into the bilges to get to difficult places.
Tarragona is an amazing city with old Roman city here too.
I attach a few pics.
