Nicks boat

Our new crew member is busy planning a gap decade. It seems that, (ask no questions) he has at the tender age of 32 got himself in a position that he has purchased a Nordhavn 47 and is planning to take delivery in a July in the UK. 

He will then motor down to Cyprus, and then get familiar with the vessel before setting of for the Caribbean.

Demetris has taken him under his wing, and is busy training him up to skipper level as he is planning to go alone with his with wife and 8 year old son.

The boat is currently under construction in China and will be shipped to Southampton where it will have its electronics fitted. Demetris and Nick plan to deliver in August. Nick is really stressed. Don’t worry Nick our Captain will get us there fine.

Poros has been interesting. It seems like Demetris and Nick are honary citizens. They seem to have made a big impression in the past. Walking down the main road we stop and chat to every second person. They seem like 2 prodigal sons returning home. Andreas, George and Mary just to mention a few who have greeted us,

Well we are off to supper to finalise our planning. It looks like we are only planning to leave on Saturday really early and possibly only make 1 stop in Turkey before Beirut. Sorry Bokkie I might not see you in Cyprus on the way back.
