Seven people onboard

Bonanza is not very large, but most people get impressed when we tell them how many we are onboard. But with careful planning, it is no problem. Yes, Kari and Froystein finally arrived on Monday, and they already enjoy the carribean life. Today Kathi will leave our ship, and it has been nice to have her onboard. Then we will be only six, sombody that want to come?

Yesterday Arild, Kari and Froystein rented a car and participated in Rally Tobago in order to get to Charlotteville to sign in the new crew members. This had to be done not later than 24 hours after arrival, even if it is several hours to Charlotteville from Pidgeon point where we are now.



Hans Olav and David went with the ferry to Chaguaramas in Trinidad to pick up our "new" 9,9HP Yamaha outboard engine. We bought it from our friend Kris, and it is an 2000 model, but shall be as good as new. They are now about to try it, and from now we will have the fastest dinghy in the harbour.

We will probably stay here some more days, sailing up to Charlotteville to check out of the country. On the way we will sure make a stop in Englishmans bay, we have seen the pictures, and is seems like the most idyllic place.
