Since yesterday I am back in Lorient BSM. The weather is beautiful, I am happy again and many racing boats are here, open 60s like Prapec Virbac, Roxy; many trimarans: Orma 60s and the Giants; Figaros, Class 40s, Minis….
When the rigger, Eric Cochet, came to see the boat he was very surprised that I still had the mast after this failure. On Monday we will unstep the mast to change all Diamond wires to something more reliable and then put all the gear on for a planned cruise to the Carribean with Sandra, this winter. In spring I want to return to Lorient solo in preparation for the Route du Rhum 2010. In the meantime I have to go back to work.
Good Luck to everybody in the OSTAR, I hope you allmake it to Newport safe and fast.
Thank you and greetings to all friends and supporters, especially and not to forget those from down under! Reini

Hi David, sometimes we miss Monfalcone, the restaurants an Osmizes - we spent lots of time there for 8 years! Maybe we go there for two days in summer to meet our friends. Great you came to the start of the Ostar and we had a chance to talk. Good Luck Reini
