I guess I should update Maverick Dream blog...let you all know where we are..:-)
Louis, Francis and Menno successfully sailed MD to Australia, arriving in September in Brisbane, and we docked at Dockside in the City for a couple of weeks. We took the boat down to Rivergate for antifouling, but had a small problem when the mast fell down after we loosened the forestay too much...! - Good job I had the boat insured the month before - totally destroyed the solar panel array at the back, the bimini, the wheel, pulled out all the wiring going up the mast, ...but the mast itself was intact.
Anyway..all sorted after a month, and now the boat is at Runaway Bay marina, with Francis looking after it. Menno left to go back to Holland, and Louis shot off to Ethiopia to meet up with his better half...We should be set for sailing up the coast in April or May 2009, with the intention of heading to Indonesia and Thailand. After that, to Europe..but that's a year away!
Happy New Year everyone!
