A New Dream

Last week was the HISWA Amsterdam boat show. We talked to the good people of the Nederlandse Vereniging van Toerzeilers and in particular to a bloke who has crossed to England twice on an 18ft Kolibri.
Every year they organize a race across to Lowestoft, open only to boats of 7.5m (25ft) or less, the Small Ships Race.
Flecha Verde: 18ft LOA, made of wood, and has crossed from Holland to England twice.
 This set Mekicevica and crew dreaming. We don't feel ready yet, but maybe next year...
