Songerie haul-out at Medregal Village, January 2014


Lovely steel boat of French artist/sailor Vincent at anchor in front of the marina.
Going in the travel lift in no-wind conditions.


Christelle sewing, using her grandma Bokkie's Pfaf hand machine, a cover for Songerie.
Our own perfect working space next to the boat.
DR Jaco.
Jaco getting Songerie ready for a new hull paint.
Another great Saturday evening dinner at Medregal with fellow sailors from all over the globe.
Jaco, Nina and Davy at the bar, Davy interfering with the family picture of owner Jean-Marc, lovely wife Yoleida and daughter JaJa! 
Great fun at Swedish Eva's house with Jean-Claude, Vincent, Eva left and Max, Davy, Nina and Jaco in the back.
Any occasion is a good occasion for Namibians to BBQ/Braai!
The wild cats gate crashed our braai!
All work done, time to enjoy the great facilities of Medregal!


Covered and waiting for her powder and paint!
Christelle made covers for everything that does not move on-board, including the cockpit wood.
Jaco serving Caiperinhas to the sailors on our last night's sun downers before we fly home.
First leg home is a water taxi across the Cariaco Golf to Cumana.
second leg is the flight from Cumana to Caracas.
Another reason why we spend so much time in Venezuela
Arriving from the tropics in ice cold New York.
Jaco at our hotel close to the airport, next time in June we'll explore a lot more when its hotter!
Last leg New York to Africa, for a 4 month "work holiday" in Namibia.
