FINALLY!

After several weeks of waiting she is finally packed and crated, with passage booked and paid for.

She leaves Cambridge tomorrow, will fly to Antigua on Monday, then on to the Virgin Islands.

Assuming we don't have the same fiasco as last time, she could be home by the end of next week.

I cant wait to see her pictured in the VI. I admit I was a bit excited when I saw the title tothis thread, God Speed Der Seekadett.

Like all the others wishes for you Richard, Godspeed and fair winds to the Seekadett.

She nor her builder could have never dreamed to sail in such beautiful waters..

So far, so good.

She was scheduled to fly to Barbados on Monday, to Antigua on Thursday, and on the first available flight to St Thomas after that.

She arrived in Antigua at 10.30 this morning.

For all I know she may already be here.

Or not.
