boat delivered

[jerome]

What is happening fellows ?! Its been a loooong time away from all the i550 fuss . But I am very , very happy to inform all my builders friends that hull 270 was finally delivered in Rio de Janeiro Brazil after over 1,5 year sitting in a wooden box, inside a container, somewhere between Turkey and Brazil.....
I am so happy.

And yes, the built has been finished for almost 2 years but the boat still hasnt had a chance to see some real water. Actually, I dont even know it floats

Welcome back! Hope to hear more soon- it's cold here, but I know it's warm there!

Wow, great to hear that your boat made it! We need a picture of 270 in Rio! (with or without the obligatory scantily clad Rio mulher jovem in the background....er...foreground)

Now send us some "picturesque" photo's with the #270 as a background.

Please??

...sounds like your boat's got the most sea-miles to date!
......I'll have to add Rio to the next world junket............................as if!

Nice to hear you are doing well in Brazil and #270 has finally joined you there. I think M&S need to update your pin on the map.

Cheers, Kevin.

What is up guys !!!

I am here ! Alive and kicking, though not sailing much lately. I had to deal with other life priorities in the last years. But I am so happy because I can now see a window of opportunity to sail my boat in São Paulo. Just found a small club that seems to have all I need to finally sail the damn thing ! have recently exchanged messages with Chad and Tim on Facebook and I am really happy to be back in touch with all my fellow builders ! Building was such a life experience for me ! Hope to address some serious sailing matters in my next posts !
