The first of March our family, friends and colleagues came to say goodbey. We did so away but only a few hundred meters. We had to repair our heater!

The 5th of March we finally left...
 

 

In Den Helder we met a friend of our son, Auke Dijkstra, who just began his career with the royal navy.  

 

March, the 8th. We first went to Breskens to get our new Gennaker and after that we started the passage to England.
