I did not like the situation to have to decide between my sailing professor Alexandre or on the sailor-mechanic-carpenter Walmir to join me in my small big adventure. Both had been part of my sailing history here in Natal, both had become friends, both had their correct price but I had to decide on one ...

I had to go to Natal more and more often, more than I had wanted to but at the same time, I spent more and more time with my baby Matilda more than I had expected or wished for. I had a serious client and wanted my sailing professor Alexandre and the sailor-mechanic-carpenter Walmir to ...

Maybe I had been dreaming a bit too much yesterday at the Iate Clube or maybe a catamaran in one of the French overseas departments had been really the first thought of my next project.
