A video from last winter

 Cleaning up my computer I found this video I made last winter (february ?) of myself and my eldest son out having fun in our GIS "Joy Spring" . What a great day we had!

Heading back

It's always fun to be spotted by friends sailing the boat. Here myself and Astrid where heading back downwind to a swing mooring by our house in Sardinia after a daylong wonder around. At the moment the photo was taken I probably had an ice cold beer in mind as I furled the sails and headed for our white buoy!  

... and again

 Same place, same weekend , and same two pathfinders, Europe (foreground) and Astrid (background)

and here Astrid all alone; it's been a great weekend, great conditions,  great location

Two pathfinders

...zooming fast downwind in lake Pareloup in France . Astrid (trailing boat) and Europe are based in the same coastal town in southern France and attended a fantastic small boat gathering in lake Pareloup. Great fun, great winds, great sailing 

Getting away from it all ....

 A short weekend getting away from it all sailing up the coast in Joy Spring my Storer designed Goat Island Skiff. 

GIS chase

 .... out with my good friend Rémi on our two GIS

Out with Joy Spring again

 A short sail after work today (actually smart working at home). The wind was a gusty shore wind , where gusts got mixed up even more by shore swirls ... had to be careful 'cause the water is still pretty cold!
