In Brunsbuttël now. Heading to the North Sea tomorrow

 When I bought the boat it was planned to leave from here as it is at the mouth of the North Sea.  Unfortunately, I was told I couldn’t keep the boat here so it was moved to a place I could find about 4 days away… not because it’s such a difficult distance, but the circumstances are such that in a boat like this I can’t just transit tge Elbe River at will.  Tides have to be taken into account, bridges have to open and ride, locked must open, and on top of all that ice has to be melted, and weather somewhat cordial.  Even with sun shining etc, it’s still cold.  So I’m finally back to the place where I bought the boat and from here the journey actually begins.  The goal from here is to sail toward Heglioland, maybe anchor or maybe turn left and head for the hills:/). 

The trip includes English Channel, Bay of Biscay, The Canaries, Azores, and back to France.  Once I arrive there, I am believing for provision for getting the boat ready for the race.  I need a lot of help:-). 

Please follow me as I go forward and if you find it in your heart to support the journey, here is my information:-)
